I realized that the most important thing about death is to
ensure that you leave this world a little better than it was before you existed
with your contributions. The way I’ve lived my life so far, my existence or
more precisely the loss of it, will not matter because I have lived without doing
anything impactful.
Before, there were so many things that occupied my mind. When
I learned how much time I had left, however, it became clear which things are
really important. So, I am writing to you for a selfish reason. I want to give
meaning to my life by sharing with you what I have realized:
·
Don’t waste your time on work that you don’t
enjoy. It is obvious that you cannot succeed in something that you don’t like.
Patience, passion, and dedication come easily only when you love what you do.
·
It’s stupid to be afraid of others’ opinions.
Fear weakens and paralyzes you. If you let it, it can grow worse and worse
every day until there is nothing left of you, but a shell of yourself. Listen
to your inner voice and go with it. Some people may call you crazy, but some
may even think you‘re a legend.
·
Take control of your life Take full
responsibility for the things that happen to you. Limit bad habits and try to
lead a healthier life. Find a sport that makes you happy. Most of all, don’t
procrastinate. Let your life be shaped by decisions you made, not by
the ones you didn’t.
·
Appreciate the people around you, your friends
and relatives will always be an infinite source of strength and love. That is
why you shouldn’t take them for granted.
It is difficult for me to fully express my feelings about the
importance of these simple realizations, but I hope that you will listen to
someone who has experienced how valuable time is.
I'm not upset because I understand that the last days of my
life have become meaningful. I only regret that I will not be able to see a lot
of cool stuff that should happen soon like the creation of AI, or Elon Musk’s
next awesome project.
We care so much about the health and integrity of our body
that until death, we don’t notice that the body is nothing more than a box - a
parcel for delivering our personality, thoughts, beliefs and intentions to this
world. If there is nothing in this box that can change the world, then it
doesn’t matter if it disappears. I believe that we all have potential, but it
also takes a lot of courage to realize it.
You can float through a life created by circumstances,
missing day after day, hour after hour. Or, you can fight for what you believe
in and write the great story of your life. I hope you will make the right
choice.
Leave a mark in this world. Have a meaningful life, whatever
definition it has for you. Go towards it. The place we are leaving is a
beautiful playground, where everything is possible. Yet, we are not here
forever. Our life is a short spark in this beautiful little planet that flies
with incredible speed to the endless darkness of the unknown universe. So,
enjoy your time here with passion. Make it interesting. Make it count!
Thank you!
