The Uncomfortable Truth That Changes Everything
What if I told you that thinking about death could make you more alive? It sounds backward, doesn't it? We spend most of our lives avoiding any mention of mortality, changing the subject when it comes up, treating death like an embarrassing relative we don't invite to dinner. But here's the twist: that avoidance might be killing the very life we're trying to protect. Consider this-you have roughly four thousand Mondays left. Not four thousand weeks or days, but Mondays. That number suddenly feels different, doesn't it? Less abstract, more urgent. This isn't about morbid obsession; it's about waking up from the trance most of us sleepwalk through. When executive coach Jodi Wellman found folders full of her mother's unrealized dreams after she died, something clicked. All those "somedays" had run out of days. The realization sparked a radical question: What if acknowledging our deadline-the ultimate one-could finally get us off autopilot and into actually living? There's a difference between being alive and actually living, and most of us know it instinctively. Think about your last week. Did you play to win or play not to lose? Did you persist when things got hard, or did you retreat to what felt safe? Those living meaningfully embrace failure as education, seek variety, say yes to opportunities that scare them, and consciously prioritize what matters. Meanwhile, those "living a wee bit dead inside" settle into comfort zones, quit when challenged, fear failure, fall into numbing routines, say no reflexively, and let life happen to them rather than shaping it intentionally.
