The thought of our own death is a way of prioritizing what’s important in life, focusing, and letting go. It lets us see what we missed.

PRETEND that your doctor told you that you have two years to live (God forbid). What will you let go or stop doing? What will you regret that you never did? What will you start doing right now? 

Sometimes the easiest way to reset a computer is to turn it off and back on again.

In life, we can leverage the thought of mortality to reset our priorities. We can simplify and clarify what’s important. It lets us see what we missed.

The reminder of our own mortality makes us humble, grateful, peaceful, and focused. It helps us let go of distractions, keep our eyes on the horizon, stay true to ourselves, and rejoice in living.

It makes us appreciate our relationships and simple things that we’ve taken for granted.
