I definitely needed to read this today! I’m coming out the other side of breast cancer and whereas I’m full of gratitude for an early diagnosis and great care I feel stuck in a place of fear and worry. I’m afraid to put it behind me and move on with my life. Very strange I know! Your wise words will definitely help me to move forward- thank you.
Nice post, and timely too. I was attacked by a shark 3 weeks ago doing what I love, fly fishing in the flats of the Bahamas. I got my stitches out 5 days ago, put a Tegaderm patch on my healing wound on my leg and was back out there today! Granted, I spent a considerable amount of time looking over my shoulder. My motto: live like this is the last day of your life.

So many people have said this: there is only now. You’re never ready to start, but you won’t be ready until you start.
All true!
"Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans” (apparently said originally by Allen Saunders, not J Lennon).
I like this too: "Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself." (GB Shaw)

Talk about a rare event. Or maybe not when you are in the Bahamas!
A lot of those retirement bucket lists cost money, lots of it. Counting on stable markets for 20 or 30 years is just a big risk.
Great points. A call to action
