Every experience in your life has a last time. You almost never know when it is. That's not a reason for guilt or grief — it's a reason to design your life with intention.

Knowing what you want out of life matters. But knowing isn't enough. At some point, planning becomes its own form of avoidance — and living requires actually living.

Knowing what you don't want is only half the work. The harder question is what you actually want — and where meaning comes from in the first place.

Most people don't think deliberately about the story of their life until it's too late to change it. The regrets of the dying are a message from your future self, delivered early.
