> in 6 months you'll be 6 months closer than you were

Not to be morbid, but…in 6 months you’ll also have 6 months less of your life left to do those things.

In the past few years, I have felt—-whether due to my aging, the chaos of current events, the mindless march of technology, who knows—-that our time here on earth is a gift that we squander at our peril.

I think some would find that bleak and grim, but I consider it an existentialist battle cry. Make a list of those things that someday you’d like to say you’ve done, or know, or have built, or have given to others…and do one of them.
