Itโs so powerful that a lot of people say they wouldnโt want to know even if they could.
It would be too scary & would take the mystery out of life.
But almost nothing in your life would be the same if you knew.
We think we will live forever.
Newsflash – We wonโt.
Our hubris is unlimited regarding time. โIโll wait until I retire to do this or thatโ is a common expression.
Really?
Who made you the time police?
Will you even be around by the time this magical day arrives?

Keep these words of Seneca in mind when youโre thinking of putting off what can be done today for tomorrow:
โLife takes our plans & dashes them to pieces. We should never underestimate Fortuneโs habit of beating just as she pleases. Just because we are showing promise & our path toward success is clear, it has no bearing on whether we will get what we want.โ
The only way to bring the most & best of your time & energy to the grand human table is to ensure you have time & energy to spare.
ย
Itโs not egoistic to put yourself first.
ย
Itโs generous.

How can you use your money to fund contentment in life?
Remember, this is your life, not a dress rehearsal.
The best investments you can make are always in yourself because itโs an investment that will last a life time – literally.
Life is long. I hope we stay in touch. ๐
โThe prospect of deathโฆ wonderfully concentrates the mind.โ โ Ernest Becker
โTrue security lies in the unrestrained embrace of insecurity โ in the recognition that we never really stand on solid ground, and never can.โ โ Oliver Burkeman, Four Thousand Weeks
