Do you wish you had more time to do things you love, to be with your children, your life partner… and maybe with yourself, too? Do you wish you had the energy to cook healthy meals for yourself – or to exercise? Are you daily and hourly too stressed to meditate or pray (or whatever makes you feel at peace)?

Then here’s a smart exercise thought out by a time management specialist. I invite you to follow these instructions in your mind:
Start by taking a glass bowl and gathering some big rocks, smaller rocks, some sand, and water, too. Now, fill your bowl with the big rocks, until you cannot fit a single one in it. Look at your bowl… would you say that it is full? Yes it is, right? Then, add the smaller rocks to the big rocks – as many as you can. Now, is your bowl full? Well, yes, it is…Continue by putting in as much sand as you can in the bowl… is it full yet? Or will it be full when you will have poured some water?

Lesson #1 is: We can do more, add more to our schedule or to-do list.
Lesson #2 is: We have to put in the big rocks first (our priorities). We cannot incorporate them to the bowl subsequently the other (smaller) elements – our non-priorities.

Many of us would like to find a way to squeeze into our days everything we want to do (trying to push the big rocks in a sand-filled schedule). We really want to play a new instrument, to exercise, or to write a book (for example), yet we do not unchangingly have the time or the energy to take the first step. We feel like the dealings are more powerful than we are. Why is that? And how do we prioritize our… priorities?
First and foremost, we have to evaluate if our priorities really are priorities. There is a major difference midst wishes and choices… You may wish to spend a half-hour every day reading one of those 500-page biographies you love so much… But if you aren’t doing it, you haven’t really the very best it – it’s not a priority. Why? Maybe you have a hard time relaxing ex post facto work, maybe you feel you should night and day be doing something “useful” and reading makes you feel guilty. The morass line is that something is extinction you. Hmmm, maybe you don’t even like reading that much, in uniformity with all…

What motivates your wishes, or your choices? Sometimes we like the idea of a dependable activity, but we don’t like doing it that much. Sometimes we want the results, but dislike the process (exercise, anyone?). Sometimes we want to do things being as how they are valued by others all about us. Or we think we “should” be doing this and that, even when it is not a necessity.

If you don’t have time to do what you wish you would do, ask yourself, “Will this specific shake-up contribute something rich and precious to my life? If I die in one year, will I be happy I did this?” If not, and if you’re under no obligation (like paying the bills), I have a suggestion for you: stop wanting to do it – you’re wasting your energy, and irritating yourself.

We take in dust in our houses, in our cars, on our clothes, but we stockpile dust in our schedules as well. We hang on not only to old habits, but also to old objectives. Our priorities change, our needs reconstruct – sometimes dash – and we don’t orderly adjust. We stopped studying Spanish 10 years ago and we keep trying to go back to it; we imagine going to Mexico and responsive easily with the locals, we imagine impressing our friends (and ourselves) when we’ll speak this lovely language… but we never find the time or energy to study it. Maybe we don’t really want or need to speak Spanish perfectly, hinder all… Or maybe we don’t really need to do the laundry every other day… maybe we can stop volunteering at our children’s school if we don’t get much out of it anymore.

When we dust our schedule (and our outdated objectives), we make room, we create space for those effervescent priorities that correspond exactly to what we need, at that precise moment; we free ourselves from affair and wishes that do not serve us anymore. Nothing is a true waste of time, of course, but some choices are far more constructive, and fun, than others. You may not be able to order a roaster tortilla and a green salad with the dressing on the side if you go to Mexico. You may not fall into a size 0 and fit in your wedding dress, or tuxedo. You may not have 10 true-devoted towels piled up all the time. But unorthodox your standards, your expectations, and your objectives, will make you feel like there is room for you in your schedule – and in your life. What would you quid pro quo in your life if you artificial that living was meant to be a lot of fun?
