Add This One Habit to Your Life

Before it’s too late.

Has there ever been someone so impactful in your life that, when they’re gone, a part of you leaves with them?

It’s almost like I can’t even describe how it felt.

It’s almost like I forgot that death was a real thing until it happened.

There was someone important in my life, someone I considered a mentor. Someone that I wanted to follow.

He died unexpectedly, and I realized I didn’t get to tell him how much I appreciated him.

Instead, my last moments with him were all about me. I was all in a bad mood because of some piss-poor output on my part. I was so caught up in my emotions that I didn’t realize this would be the last time I saw him.

This is a horrible feeling.

Death is a master at catching us off guard. We are so focused on things that don’t matter, and Death has a way of putting everything to the wayside.

Make it a habit to tell the ones you love and appreciate how important they are to you before it’s too late.

Life is a hard game of juggling things that are within your control and things that aren’t.

Sometimes we get so caught up in ourselves that we don’t see everyone else who is hurting.

We forget that we are but a speckle in a massive, everlasting universe.

We forget that the universe dictates when we end, and we have no say over it.

Make it your ambition to lead your life without regret. Make it your ambition to reach out and grab the hands of others you care about before there isn’t a hand to grab.

Don’t wait until it’s too late.
