Everyone, regardless of age, status, material wealth, education, or notoriety, will leave a legacy behind. Even if we never think about our legacy, never take any actions to prepare for after our passing, each of us will still pass and leave our imprint on the world. Think about it: what if today was your last day on Earth? What kind of impression would you leave behind? How would you be remembered? Who would you be in the memories of those who know and love you?
Thinking about our legacy can be a little daunting. After all, how can we possibly control what others’ think of us or how our actions are received? In all honesty, we can’t. For those of us who have tried, we know controlling others’ thoughts and emotions is a futile effort.
