Don't just take my word for it...
A gripping real-world example of the Mortality Mindset in action
In my latest article, I made the case for using awareness of mortality as a way to help clarify one’s sense of purpose. (Read it here, if you missed it.)
Yesterday, The Guardian ran a piece which vividly illustrates how an unexpected reminder of mortality instantly sharpens priorities. It also beautifully explains how to capitalize on this by continuing to live with a Mortality Mindset.
I thought I’d share it with you. Enjoy!
For me, that moment represented a seismic shift in the way I live my life. It was a reminder to stop waiting for things to happen, and to voraciously seek them out instead - so when I’m next faced with drastic news I can meet it without fear or regret.
