EI Week Self-Awareness: If Your Life Ended Now, What Would You Regret?

In today’s session, we ask some of the big questions of self-awareness such as: what is your aspiration in life? What do you long for? What would you regret if your story ended now? These are important questions because we, as Last 8%ers, will not let fear or what other people think of us get in the way of living our best life. 
 
"People grow a lot when they are faced with their own mortality. I learnt never to underestimate someone’s capacity for growth. Some changes were phenomenal. Each experienced a variety of emotions, as expected, denial, fear, anger, remorse, more denial and eventually acceptance. Every single patient found their peace before they departed though, every one of them." Bonnie Ware. 

If you're new to the Last 8% Morning, over the course of 15 minutes we integrate movement, mindfulness, and mental training exercises. Why? So we can build the skills necessary to be our best in our more difficult moments, what we call the Last 8%. What are these skills? These are skills of emotional intelligence. Why? We do this because it is emotion that gets in our way.
