Swad Wealth Management’s Post

Many of us won't experience a near-death experience that shocks us into realizing our true priorities. Many of us will continue to grind and keep ourselves "so busy" that we won't escape the day-to-day to see the big picture. Last week, I talked about Morrie from the book "Tuesdays with Morrie" where Morrie shares his wisdom, while facing death, to help us lead more fulfilled lives. While I never want to see you or anyone have to face something like ALS, like Morrie did, I hope you are doing all you can to live your most fulfilled life. So, without intentionally putting ourselves in a near-death experience, how do we gain clarity over each of our individual priorities? Enter - THE THREE QUESTIONS About 70% of the time, the third question is where people really get clear. And while the question is simple, it's not always the easiest to answer. So what is the third question? "The doctor shocks you with the news that you only have one day left to live. Notice what feelings arise as you front your very real mortality... Ask yourself: -What did I miss? -What did I not get to be? -What did I not get to do?" This question isn't about what you would do over the next 24 hours... It's about understanding your feelings, which as Morrie tells us can lead to a richer life.
