A philosophy professor stood before his class with some items on the table in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with rocks, about 2 inches in diameter.

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

So the professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles, of course, rolled into the open areas between the rocks.

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

The professor picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up the remaining open areas of the jar.

He then asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous “Yes.”

“Now,” said the professor, “I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The rocks are the important things – your family, your partner, your health, your children – things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter – like your job, your house, your car. The sand is everything else, the small stuff.”

“If you put the sand into the jar first,” he continued, “there is no room for the pebbles or the rocks. The same goes for your life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you. Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take your partner out dancing. There will always be time to go to work, clean the house, give a dinner party, or fix the disposal.”

“Take care of the rocks first – the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.”

good evening to everyone on the thread

Food for thought, that's what this thread is. Life punishes the errant soul before delivering knowledge. Sometimes, one sentence can save a man's life or destroy it altogether. Please be careful when you speak carelessly, those that hate you always remember. Thumbs up, @op.

THANKS OP...HOPE this gets to the FP rather than those celebs pics there...

good evening to everyone on the thread

Lately, with what my school is turning us into- we go on strike day in day out, not to even mention suspensions, am sick of what life could eventually offer... A civil engineering student to be precise, studying at a college of technology;am just confused and thinking what can I do while am still at school to earn money and which is in line with my area of discipline.
Am into autocad, but just feeling like I learnt it for learning sake...
NB.... Never mind the way I poured out my feelings, couldn't know how to perfect my sayings than this... I'd be glad if even with little encouragement, you'd help.

the just 1 thing that is stopping you from making extra cash with autocad is that you have not approached people and inform them that you can help them with their autocad services (marketing). learn to market your skill and you have an extra source of income. if you will be interested in importation business refer to the link i posted at the top of this page as everything you will require is their. importation is very lucrative and you will surely bite your finger for discovering it this late. your success is my pride.

2. CassavaRepublic Press
www.cassavarepublic.biz
This is what Cassava Republic Press' refreshing
and engaging website have to say about the
intecontinental brand:
We set up Cassava Republic in 2006, after a
few years of contemplation and planning.
African writers were being increasingly
published and read overseas, with little
knowledge or availability of this new wave of
talent in Nigeria. The conversation about
African writing was taking place elsewhere.
Something had to be done.
Seven years later, we are a small but
established publishing brand, with a reputation
for bringing out high quality fiction and non-
fiction for adults and children alike.
Our mission is to change the way we all think
about African writing. We think that
contemporary African prose should be rooted in
African experience in all its diversity, whether
set in filthy-yet-sexy megacities such as Lagos
or Kinshasa, in little-known rural communities,
in the recent past or indeed the near future. We
also think the time has come to build a new
body of African writing that links writers across
different times and spaces.
It's therefore the right time to ask challenging
questions of African writing - where have we
come from, where are we now, where are we
going? Our role is to facilitate and participate in
addressing these questions, as our list grows.
We are still just beginning.
Good job, Cassava Republic.

1 Bookcraft Limited
A friend of mine was saying the other day that
Wole Soyinka must have bought a larger
percentage of Bookcraft Limited since the
company publishes all of his latest titles.
BOOKCRAFT has done well for themselves and
the publishing industry, providing upcoming
publishing houses the necessary template.What
we like about the company? If there is one thing
we are eulogizing the firm for, it is their taste of
quality which exudes in the packaging and
presentation of all of their titles.

BOOKCRAFT has published a large number of
titles in a wide variety of subjects art;
biography; history; literature; politics; current
affairs; for a growing market of discerning,
sophisticated and well educated bibliophiles.
BOOKCRAFT has over the years established a
distinctive presence in the book market, the
uniquely-packaged, reader-friendly design of
our books, quickly becoming an instantly
recognizable trademark. Well done,
BOOKCRAFT.Congratulations.
