According to the CDC the life expectancy of a person born in the United states is 78 years.  Little less for males and a little more for females but that is the average.  The average works for this show.  That is just over 4,000 weeks worth of life that you have on this planet.  

This should be a existential crisis . It should move us to action on things that mean the most to us.  Not just important things - unfortunately some important things will not get accomplished because life is too short.  So we need to focus on the things most meaningful to us in the short time we get.  

These are thoughts from reading Oliver Burkeman's book '4,000 Weeks: Time Management for Mortals'.

I hope you enjoy today's show. -Brad
