120 Minutes
by Jay on Jun.08, 2009, under Opinion
Ready to live more in the next couple of hours than the rest of your life to date? Just tell yourself you have only 120 minutes to live. (Whisper it to yourself a few times, it helps to get this profundity front and center in your mind.)
Of course time will pass the same no matter what you tell yourself. Months. Years. Decades. But when you forget to seize the day in bite-sized, 120-minute chunks, tell yourself again and again whenever the urge strikes: I have only 120 minutes to live.
One day it will come to pass that you find yourself arriving on the doorstep at the end of your life. And there will be no more seconds, minutes, days, months, years or decades.
You now have 119 minutes. Good luck making the minutes count.
