Welcome To YOUR FUNERAL


Listen Later

In the previous episode, we touched on this really powerful exercise where you ask your parents or grandparents some reflective questions about their lives and record their answers. Life passes quickly, and often a time a lot is left unsaid or even unknown.

This exercise helps you get a really good insight into your parents' lives and what really matters in life. Not only will it help you remember them fondly when they are gone, but it will also help you live a life that has an impact on the people around you.

The purpose of this episode is to remind you that life is short. When people gather at your funeral, what will they say about you? How did you impact them, and what can they remember of you? It may be a small thing you did without even thinking but turned out to have a significant impact on someone else's life. Remember, you write your eulogy each day when you are alive.

Tune in to hear Eddie and I talk about mortality and how to live your life in alignment with what you want to be remembered for and its impact on those you cross paths with.

"Let us prepare our minds as if we'd come to the very end of life. Let us postpone nothing. Let us balance life's books each day. The one who puts the finishing touches on their life each day is never short of time" Seneca.
