Optimism Thought of the Week

Defining our own Legacy

Someone that I know was taken off of life support last night. It was less than a couple of weeks ago, that I was chatting with him. The reality hit me today, if today was my final day on Earth, what would I want my legacy to be?

Your own legacy is beyond monetary value, your legacy remains when you are far gone from the Earth. We generate things here such as money, homes, cars and anything else we may want. Those things will surely come to pass, but your legacy will remain.

True success is not determined by how much you gain, but the positive impact you leave on others. Your legacy is a gift that you give your children, friends, and family.

Determine today what you will like your legacy to be.
