Look in the mirror everyday and ask,
“If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am doing today?”
If the answer is no for many days in a row, you need to change something.
Remembering you are going to die is the most important tool to make big decisions in life, everything falls away in the face of death.
External expectations, pride, fear of embarrassment or failure are all things that don’t matter in the big picture.
Remembering you are going to die is the best way to remember you have nothing to lose.
"You are already naked, you have nothing to lose by following you heart.” ─Steve Jobs
「記住你即將死去」是我一生中遇到的最重要箴言。
它幫我指明了生命中重要的選擇。
因為幾乎所有的事情,包括所有的榮譽、驕傲、對難堪和失敗的恐懼,
這些在死亡面前都會轉眼消失。只有真正重要的東西會留下來。
你已經赤身裸體, 沒有理由不去跟隨自己的心一起跳動。
