2 weeks ago, I made a lawyer cry.
I made my coaching client do these 2 exercises:

Eulogy Exercise:
Describe in detail what you want these people to say about you at your funeral:
– Your wife
– Your 2 sons
– Your 3 closest friends

Not what they would say now.
What you want them to say.

Combine the result into:
Obituary Exercise:
– Write your own obituary

Writing these really hit home for him.

Reading the result gave me literal goosebumps.
Beautiful.

Then I told him:
“This is your compass. Your mission is to make this come true.”

These exercises are a bit morbid, I agree.
But we tend to think too little about our own death.

Thinking about our “real legacy” is such a strong reminder of how we want to impact our loved ones.

And how we want to live our lives.


– What legacy do you want to leave behind?

PS: About the picture: “What legacy do I want to leave my wife Manon and my daughter Leyla? “
