Always Think About How It'll Look In The Obituary
I am no moralist. I do my best every day to restrain my urge to judge the actions of others. I remind myself that I am usually ignorant about the needs and desires that motivate them to make the choices they do. I try to stay aware that we all have a different internal compass, and that each of us has occasionally made a choice out of a hard-felt necessity that we might not make otherwise were we in a different position. It is a fact of life of which I attempt to remain constantly cognizant. Still, there is something to be said for thinking deeply and carefully about each pursuit you undertake: You never know which one you’re going to be remembered for.
