It was cold, crisp,
Canadian winter's morning in January 1998.
I had a close shave with death. I realize, (not for
the first time but, never any clearer) that life was short and there are
some things that I must do before I leave this world. These
questions were the results of much reflection. The exercise of thinking
through my answers changed my life drastically and dramatically. Try it and let me know
how it impacted you.
Here are those
questions:
1. What am I doing now that I will leave behind, when I leave?
(Legacy)
2. What am I doing now
that I will take with me, when I leave? (Character &
Rewards)
3. What would I do if money was not an issue? (Values)
4. What would I do, even if money was an issue?
(Priority)
5. What are the things in my life that if I don't do them, they will never
be done? And what are the consequences for
leaving them undone? (Destiny)
As you work through these,
you will discover your:
Passion
Priority
They should also
help you to:
Sharpen your vision
Determine your ventures (future actions)
