The Most Inspirational Place
The graveyard is the most inspirational place. It must be because so many people have taken their dreams there. Will you?
I am mortal
Thinking about the fact that I will not live forever helps me live a more adventurous and rewarding life now. As Steve Jobs said: "Remembering that you are going to die, releases you from the idea that you have something to lose". How do you think about it?
Never a "best time"
There will never be a best time to do something great. Don't wait. You must make the best time - now.
Looking for a place…
Some of us have been looking for a place out there...of peace...of tranquility...of relief. But we cannot find such a place out there. We must look inside ourselves, for without finding it inside, we will never find it outside.
Decisions shape your destiny
Where to live, what work to do, who to marry, what habits to form - decisions shape our destiny. Given the decisions you've made so far, project your life lines out 20 years - where will you be? Who is in charge of your decisions?
Will you outlive your money?
Wouldn't it be nice to run out of money the day you die? But that's not likely. If you are under 35, you are paying for Social Security benefits for current retirees that you can't expect to receive yourself. You should have another plan. What would that be?
How old do you want to live to be?
Really. Pick an age. The average answer is 89. Only 8% of peple want to live to be over 100. Assuming you'll live to that age, how much of your life has elapsed? (42%, 63%, etc.) You can't outlive your body. Will it last that long?
Revenge
Revenge serves the darker side of us, and will likely illicit a small war that never ends. Forgiveness builds our higher self, and relieves us of the burden. Who have you been battling in your mind that you can forgive, and set yourself free?
Your Compass Heading
While you can't change where you are in life overnight, you can change your direction. What direction are you headed?

This really hits home. There is a delicate balance between work, play, travel and spending time with friends and family.
It’s much more than just being thankful and grateful for our life in general, it’s the enjoying the satisfaction that comes from those special moments and the grand future-memories that can be shared as a result.
Realizing you are going to die should cause you to make certain of your future after you die. There is only one who rose from the dead, with documented proof from both critics and followers. Since you are going to spend much more time dead than alive, it pays better dividends to pay attention to the one who rose from the dead now. See the writings of Lee Strobel, The Case for Faith, etc. for information.
