    A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he _________ a large, empty jar and filled it with golf balls.

He asked the students if the _________ was full. They agreed that it was.

The professor picked up a box of pebbles and poured it into the jar. He _________ the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas _________ the golf balls.

He asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

The professor _________ picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. _________the sand filled up everything else.

He asked once more if the jar was full. The students _________with unanimous(一致的) yes.

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured them into the jar, filling the _________ space between the sand. The students laughed.

“Now,” said the professor, “I want you to recognize that this jar _________ your life. The golf balls are the __________ things: family, children, __________, friends and favorite passions. Things, that if everything else was __________ and only they remained, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the things that __________, like your job, house, and car. The sand is everything else—the small staff.”

“If you put the sand into the jar__________, there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same __________ for life. If you spend all of your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you. So pay attention to the __________ that are critical to your happiness. Take care of the golf balls first. Set your____________. The rest is just sand.”

One student raised her hand and asked what the ____________ represented.
