COUNT DOWN OF 50 OF THE BEST LIFE HACKS/MARGINAL GAINS FOR A BETTER FUTURE SELF #37

#37. Measure Your Life by the People Whose Lives You Touch


“Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes.”

If you’ve seen Rent, you know the song and that’s the number of minutes in a year. 

The song continues … “525,600 minutes – how do you measure, measure a year? … In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights, in cups of coffee. … In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife. In 525,600 minutes – how do you measure a year in the life?”

How do you measure your life?

You don’t measure it in mansions or yachts.

And, you don’t need to climb a mountain to find the truth.

You can measure your life by the people whose lives you touch.
