Death – Your Best Advisor

The title may sound very morose but the truth is, it is meant to fill you more full of life!

Having death as an adviser is not the same thing as living life as if you were going to die tomorrow. It’s not about pitching all common sense aside and doing something crazy.

It’s also not thinking about dying! Rather quite the opposite, it’s about about living life and loving and appreciating every single moment!!!

The reality is that at any given moment, death could tap you on the shoulder and take you towards that glowing white light at the end of the tunnel.

This isn’t something to be scared of but rather to appreciate because when you remember that LIFE IS NOT A GIVEN and can be taken from you at ANY time, then it frees you to be absolutely, truly you, at your very essence of being.

So many people wonder around life “half-assing” it and living for tomorrow. And the excuses run the entire spectrum of possibilities.

Whether for you it’s about getting in shape, starting your own business, talking to that pretty girl, cleaning the house, standing up for yourself or EVEN HAVING THE GUMPTION TO TELL SOMEONE YOU LOVE THEM BECAUSE IT MAKES YOU A LITTLE UNCOMFORTABLE.

You see that’s the problem we all have at one time or another in life. We feel a little uncomfortable. And because we are a little uncomfortable, because we are on the edge of our cushy, comfy safe zone… we retreat.

And what happens is you spend your life NEVER TRULY LIVING!!!

But when you allow death to be an adviser and remind you it’s just a single breath away, then there can be no fear, there is no rejection, there is no uncomfortableness.

You suddenly stop being angry and upset with other people for THEIR actions too.

Because the only thing that matters when death is your adviser, is this moment and that you are in it. Nobody else can take your joy and happiness away in this moment because they simply aren’t that important.

There is just YOU and THIS MOMENT!

There is just YOU and YOUR LIFE!

There is just YOU and BEING EXACTLY WHO YOU WANT TO BE EVERY MINUTE OF EVERY DAY!

I don’t know about you but I AM NOT going to die WISHING I was really me. I’m not going to die wearing some mask for the rest of society.

My life is a gift, and I will not waste one single minute of it. And when death taps me on the shoulder, I am going out proud that I lived up every single minute of it like this moment, is the only one that ever counted.

I WILL LIVE FREE!!!
