Why Now?
Why is Kicking the Bucket important NOW? We are all getting older. That is a fact. Another fact is we will not live forever. And a third fact is we can’t take it with us.
With all of that in mind, we have too much stuff and we are not taking care of the business of dying. You might say thinking about dying is dark and ugly but we need to think of it as just another thing we have to do – like flu shots, taxes, and maybe New Year’s resolutions.
If we want something done right or done the way we want it done we have to do it ourselves. Take time to make a will so people you want to get certain things will get them. Do your own obit to say the things the way you want. It may make you happy to see what you have accomplished. It may scream to do a few more things that you haven’t done. Get things appraised. Values change in time – up or down. We need to know.
But above everything, clear out the excess! Too many books, records, films, clothes, jewelry, papers, and much more. Downsize NOW! And make sure important documents are together both for you to find fast in case of a problem or for loved ones to find.
This generation needs to get its’ act together. NOW! What time better than the end of the year?
By the way, Kicking the Bucket List is now available in paperback, Kindle and iBooks.
