Memento Mori

Happened to see the “Memento Mori” post recently in my LinkedIn feed, it was a reminder to live more on purpose, more aware and more deliberate rather than to give in to the defaults and automated, habitual drifting through life.

Chalked out my “Before I Die” List –

1. Actualize the constructive potential in me, most of the time, everyday.
2. Create at least one thing that lasts long after this body has perished.
3. Discover at-least one new secret of nature.
4. Do at least one thing to pay back my debt to my community
5. Travel across the Country

What is your “Before I Die” list?

Self- Discipline

Of all the valuable gifts, self discipline is the one that is critically vital for a good life. By a good life, I mean not only the life of sufficiency and decent comforts but also a life of contentment and joy.

A person who fails to discipline her mind and actions, is often miserable in worldly pursuits as well as internally.
