Welcome friends to Episode #63 of the Own Your Best Life Podcast. I’ve often found that changes to our lives can bring us to rediscover another part of ourselves. Changes in our lives dissolve our identities. Take the pandemic. As we emerge from the pandemic, I began to think about what I would want to remain from this last year, and how to handle the oncoming travel, social agenda and return to life. I find it particularly helpful to reshape one’s life by turning the contents of our lives on its head, dissolving this fixed way of thinking and living. The pandemic did just that. If you were to remove all the social engagements, travel and ways of being with one another easily, who are you and from where does your joy come? Another example is our family constructs. If you are in a relationship with a partner or have kids, where does your sense of belonging or purpose come from if those weren’t your main focus? If you are not in a relationship and kids are not in the picture, how would your sense of belonging or purpose change if you did have these constructs in your life? Change upon change upon change. Each change is a death of some part of ourselves from the previous minute, day or week or months. Today, we’re going to talk about how thinking about death changes what we would do today, and can even help us get to where we are looking to go even faster.
