Legacy
Here’s a quick thought for you. Well, first a quick task followed by a quick thought. Okay, first, select your favorite search engine and search the word: Legacy. Now, if the majority of your results are related to the financial assets you leave behind then you are not alone. But this is a deeply flawed and misinformed definition of legacy. Your legacy, although affected by your assets (possessions) do not define in totum your legacy. I find the following definition a bit more all-inclusive a...

Netflix & Chill
If you’re into the stock market or day trading like the countless others recovering from years trapped inside with no outlet for entertainment, then you’re more than likely aware about the recent news surrounding Netflix and their stock price plummeting. If you’re like me, dealing with both the stocks and the crypto markets, then you’re probably less shocked by an over-30% drop in a single day. (In fact, you may likely shrug your shoulders and say, “Only 30? sounds like Tuesday!”) Regardless,...

Woulda Coulda Shoulda
We all know those people. The ones who balked at your advice, in spite of your urgent pleading and maybe in some cases actual begging. Of course these people mean well, the cautious personality type is incredibly important in balancing our world. But I’m not referring to the self-aware overly cautious individual. (No, this person well knows they have deep troubles with change and decision-making and have come to terms with the consequences for following their instincts.) These self-aware peop...

Death. Not a word many find much joy within. In fact, most have an immediate and negative reaction at the word. And yet, our personal distaste for a word should not cripple us or prevent us from being thoughtful about all aspects of our life.
There should not be a general public logomisia towards death, or departure.
Someone recently suggested the word “departure” as an alternative. I’ll be honest I’m not sure how I feel about it. My first response is a bit of a cyber elevator ding upon hearing the word. But perhaps the concept of a departure does in fact represent this particular point in a life’s journey quite uniquely well. And perhaps this is merely another point to recognize my own aversions to a word.
