OBITUARY

I thought about something unusual today, I call it unusual because it’s actually unusual for a healthy human being to think about writing an obituary for herself.

Don’t mention, I know I have weird tendencies ☺️

Back to the issue, writing an obituary for self. No, I’m not thinking about nor considering suicide. My thoughts about writing an obituary is as a means of measuring where I am at the moment, more of having it as a push—to think about all the plans I’ve left at plans—to start implementing the myriads of plans I’ve been procrastinating on because honestly, my obituary in it’s current state isn’t what I want to be said of my time on the earth. I’d like something more robust, that captures how much I impacted lives and consequently, earth, during my time in it.
So, since my obituary isn’t anywhere near what I expect it to be, I know I have a long way to go. Hence, I’ve got to get off my butt and start taking daily deliberate and consistent steps towards achieving all I was created to do.

P.S If you are willing, feel free to write out your obituary currently and compare it against what you’ll like your obituary to look like when you die. I feel it’s one of the simplest ways to take stock of where you are at the moment against where you want to be and it could also nudge you towards doing the needful to improve your life and consequently, your obituary. 🤷🏽‍♀️
