Here is one that I received in an email yesterday from All Pro Dads:
What is Eternal? An article in Newsweek reported that Alfred Nobel shared one thing in common with Mark Twain and Ernest Hemingway. He had the chance to read about his own demise in the newspaper. He was so upset by the obituary’s emphasis on his pioneering work with dynamite—the WMD of its day—that he resolved at once to upgrade his real death notice by endowing an award for international peace. Thus, the Nobel Peace Prize.
What about you? If you had the chance to read your own obituary, what would it say? And what changes can you make now so that snippet will reflect on a life well lived? A good first step is to think about 10 things from your life that will survive your death. Then, have that impact what’s on your bucket list. Life is serious. And short. Live well and die remembered.
