Remember That You're Gonna Die: Jodi Wellman on PYP 603
Manage episode 444136915 series 108381
Thoughts on the episode? Let us know.
Let's get started because we don't have a lot of time.
At least that's the perspective of today's guest, Jodi Wellman. Jodi is an executive coach and speaker, and the author of You Only Die Once. And she's a big fan of Memento mori, Latin for "remember that you will die."
Acknowledging the scarcity of our time, she insists, can help us make the most of the time that we have.
And it doesn't have to be morbid. It can be fun. Jodi keeps skulls as decorations, and they're surprisingly cheerful-looking
Remembering that we don't have infinite time and infinite opportunities can provide a much needed push when we're stuck.
So we can live the life we want, rather than waiting and rationalizing and looking back with regret at the end.
In our conversation, I get free coaching on making some bold moves in my life.
We talk about my fear of "indulging," even a little — that it will turn into a one-way highway to depravity — and how I might explore some balance between self-indulgence and Puritanical austerity.
In summation: "Life is short. We gotta get on with this shit."
