How to Shower Like You're Dying (Aurelius - Meditations 2:11)

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Synopsis: Today we return to a familiar theme: how to live like it’s your last day. In past episodes we’ve discussed the challenges to implementing this in practice. Thanks to some insights from Mark Nepo and Steve Jobs, I think I’ve found another piece to the puzzle. This is one of those “thinking aloud” episodes in which I explore how these ideas can apply to my own life. I hope that listening to my own musings helps you to adapt these ideas to your own situation in life. This week's Torah content has been sponsored in memory of Rabbi Dr Leon & Frances Gersten.Related Rabbi Schneeweiss Content: - How to Enjoy the Present Day As If It’s Your Last- Counting the Weeks of My LifeSources: - Aurelius, Meditations 2:11- Mark Nepo, The Book of Awakening, November 15 (pp.376-377)- Ryan Holiday, The Daily Stoic, December 2 (p.358)- Steve Jobs, Stanford Commencement Address 2005----------If you have questions, comments, or feedback, I would love to hear from you!
