Good Point

This excerpt comes from the latest book I'm reading 'Stumbling on Happiness' by Daniel Gilbert.

'What would you do right now if you learned that you were going to die in ten minutes?...
Hard to say, of course, but of all the things you might do in your final ten minutes, it's a pretty safe bet that few of them are things you actually did today.

Now, some people will bemoan this fact, wag their fingers in your direction, and tell you sternly that you should live every minute of your life as though it were your last, which only goes to show that some people would spend their final ten minutes giving other people dumb advice.'
