"Be Conscious About Your Legacy”

How do you want to be remembered?

Something that most people don't realize is that one way or another you're going to be remembered somehow.

For example, my great-grandfather…

My grandmother's father owned a grocery store in the Bronx and that's how she remembers him.

That's fantastic that he supported his family.

He was a pillar of the neighborhood.

He took care of people in the community and it's a beautiful Legacy.

And for many people taking care of their family, raising a wonderful family and supporting them and caring for them is a fantastic Legacy.

And then there are those of us that are called to something bigger.

We're called to leave a dent in the universe…

To leave this place better than we found it.

In a way that's larger than ourselves and our immediate family.

Again, there's nothing wrong with aspiring to raise a great family and take great care of them.

And if that's all you want to do, you probably don't resonate with a lot of these messages from me and that's okay.

I'm not for everybody.

But for those that are called to something more, be conscious of it.

This isn't about caring what people think.

I largely don't care what people think,

But I do care how I want to be remembered…

How I want to show up in the larger scheme of things.

Steve Jobs knew he was doing something big.

Elon knows he's doing something big.

Arianna Huffington knows she's leaving a dent.

Oprah has left a fantastic dent in the universe.

And it's not to compare myself to them…

There are people that are much less famous that have left an amazing Legacy and continue to.

But the point today is simply being conscious of the fact that one way or another, I'm leaving a legacy behind.

And so I must be conscious about what that is and how I'm going to do it.

To just drop a little bread crumb in this Stealth Mode journey here…

One of those pieces for me has to do with how this planet is in a tough place right now.

And we just continue to pillage.

So what kind of planet are we leaving behind for those that are going to come after us?

I choose for it to be a positive one.

So anyway, that's my rant for today.
