Write Your Eulogy

​

I have done some weird things, but this? It seemed so dark and gloomy. Dwelling on the day that I’d be buried 6’ under felt morbid beyond belief.

I’d paid my real estate coach big bucks to teach me how to change my life, to make my dreams a reality, and to rewire my mindset about the world, money, and real estate... What did this have to do with buying assets?
​
Odd as the assignment was, in the 1-2 weeks following our first coaching call, I started writing my eulogy.

I don't know if you have ever experienced anything like this before... (If you read ​BURN EVERYTHING TO THE GROUND​, you might have 😊) it is hard to explain, but I will give it a shot.
​
As I wrote, I discovered parts of myself that I never realized were there.
​
It was sort of like being introduced to a stranger…

Desires, dreams, missions written on my heart that I was created to accomplish… it all started to surface.
​
I wrote over 1000 words without even trying.

As I finished it, I thought:
​
​"Why hasn’t anyone taught me to do this before now?"
​
The clarity this exercise brings to your purpose is incredible.

What is a Eulogy, and Why Does it Matter?

A eulogy is a speech someone gives at your funeral, sharing who you were, what you accomplished, and how you impacted the world and the people in it, particularly those who meant the most to you.
​
The power of this tool is this: we want that speech to be good. We want it to be excellent.

The challenge of this exercise is this: unless we make immediate changes to how we live our lives, that report may not be as good as it could have been.

In Psalm 90:12, the bible discusses the power of considering our own mortality:

"So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom."

​
When you take the time to step back and think about your life as a whole, something shifts. You start to see what really matters—not just for today or tomorrow, but for the legacy you’re building over a lifetime.

When life gets hard—and it will—this exercise can also serve as a grounding tool. When you’re feeling discouraged or unsure of your next step, you can look back at your eulogy and remember who you are, what you value, and why you’re here.

I don’t know about you, but clarity is something I can’t get enough of.
​
Let me give you some practical insight on how to start writing your eulogy.

Ask Yourself Questions Like These

To begin, open a blank document or grab a notebook. Just like you would with a personal balance sheet, start typing or writing. Don’t worry about making it perfect or polished.

Ask yourself these questions:

• What do I want people to say about me?
• What do I want them to know about my life?
• Who will I have been?
• What will I have accomplished?
• Who do I want to have impacted, and how?

This exercise isn’t about figuring out how you’ll achieve these things. It’s not about creating a step-by-step plan.

It’s about looking inside to find that factory-installed purpose.

It’s about defining what matters most to you—what you hope will be true about your life when all is said and done.

Take the Challenge

Here’s what I want you to do: set aside some time this week to write your eulogy. Find a quiet place, turn off your phone, and let yourself dream.

Write about who you want to be, what you want to accomplish, and the impact you want to leave behind. Don’t rush it. Take your time.

This isn’t set in stone. You can edit it, tweak it, and rewrite it as often as you need to. Life changes, and so do we.

But right now, in this season, this exercise can help you get clear on what’s most important to you, and as we have been discussing developing a compelling vision for your health, wealth, and relationships.
​
This is just what you need, right now.
