No. 15 · First Things First

The verse

Move the big stones first, then pour the sand;
the jar has room for everything.

PrioritiesWhat matters most

What it means

When time is limited, the order decides the outcome. Today suits handling the most important thing first and fitting the small chores around it, so what truly matters is not squeezed into a corner.

Something to do today

• List today's to-dos, circle the most important one, and do it first.
