Don’t let this Halloween go to waste.

Instead of letting another Halloween pass by where we poke fun at death and dying with costumes and candy, what if we took the opportunity to embrace our mortality and actually talk about what matters the most to us in the end?

For just a moment, pause and think about what you would do if your time were short.

What would you want do with that time?

Who would you want to spend that time with?

What would you want to say to the people in your life?

While I hope this is only theoretical for you, I do hope you share your answers with someone important to you NOW.

Because here’s the thing. If you spend your whole life avoiding tough conversations, odds are low you are going to rally in a crisis. Introspection and the ability to reflect on what matters most to you are “muscles” that need time and effort to bulk up.

You can start building those muscles now with this exercise. Maybe you can make it your new Halloween tradition. But obviously keep the candy too 🍬

Happy Halloween! 🎃
