Whenever you have some time to spare, pop this question in your head and think over it. I was once sitting and started to think How I want to be remembered? And the answers really shook me up. It was a reality check for me. And, I think you should too think over it at least once to give yourself a reality check too.

Imagine you are at the end of your journey and while you are on your death bed your whole life flashes in front of your eyes. Would you have any regrets? Would you punch the air regretting why you didn’t do it when you could? Would you be happy that you have become what you wanted to be? Or would you just wish to get another life to fulfill what you couldn’t do in this life?

Now come back to the present. Are your actions in sync with your answers to my previous questions? Are you going to get exactly what you answered, with your present actions? I’ll let you think over it and come back to this question and its relevance in a future post. But, just for once think about it. You probably won’t be coming back to know why I asked it. It is that meaningful question.
