Here lies...........

I read something recently that I revert to when I’m struggling with my business or I do something I’m not proud of. Or, I just need to give myself kick up the backside. I would like to share it with you.
Apologies to those who have read it somewhere before, but still, it may just give you a kick up the backside
I’d Like you to imagine you are about to attend one of the most important occasions of your life.
It will be held in a room sufficiently large enough to seat all of your friends, your family, your business associates, anyone and everyone to whom you are important and who is important to you.
Can you see it?
The walls are draped with deep golden tapestries.
The lighting is subdued, soft, casting a warm glow on the faces of your expectant guests. Their chairs are handsomely upholstered in a golden fabric that matches the tapestries. The golden carpeting is deeply piled.
At the front of the room is a dais, and on the dais a large, beautifully decorated table, with candles burning at either end.
On the table, in the centre, is the object of everyone’s attention. A large, shining, ornate box. And in the box is………..YOU! Stiff as the proverbial board.
Do you see yourself lying in the box, not a dry eye in the room? 
Now, listen.
From the four corners of the room comes a tape recording of your voice. Can you here it? lying in the box, not a dry eye in the room?
Now, listen.
From the four corners of the room comes a tape recording of your voice. Can you here it? Your addressing your guests. You’re telling them the story of your life.
How would you like that story to go?
That’s your primary aim.
What would you like to be able to say about your life after it’s too late to do anything about it?
That’s your primary aim.
If you were to write a script for the tape to played for the mourners at your funeral, how would you like it to read?
That’s your primary aim.
And once you’ve created the script, all you need to do is make it come true.
