Coincidentally I am planning on making some serious career and life changes for the very reasons you highlight. I think I've been filling my bowl with too many pebbles and too much sand. I think most of us reach a point in life where we re-prioritize what is important. That's called growing and maturing, I think. Thanks for another great post. Chris Hi Ron,
Very good analogy… and timely for me. Coincidentally I am planning on making some serious career and life changes for the very reasons you highlight. I think I’ve been filling my bowl with too many pebbles and too much sand. I think most of us reach a point in life where we re-prioritize what is important. That’s called growing and maturing, I think.

Thanks for another great post.

Chris

And connecting back to Ron's article, it's "what holds everything together" Being from France as well I applaude Franck’s comment and I give it this meaning: however busy you are, you still have some time to spend having a beer or a glass of wine with your friends.

I knew the demonstration, but with a slightly different conclusion (use beer instead of water): the explanation for oranges, peebles & sand is the same. But at the end: "even if you think you life is filled at his maximum level, there is always place for a good beer". Cheers from France... Ron, thanks for the work you’re doing on your site.
