Day 52 – The Dash

Last night I heard a presentation by Retired General Rick Lynch. Although he said many things, the thing he concluded with was about “The Dash.”

The Dash is the little line that is in between your start date and end dates on your tombstone.

I guess the beginning date and end date mean very little, what really is important is what happens in between or the dash.

I think the 365 commitment is helping me to remember every day to focus on making the dash as meaningful as possible.

Fyi – What do you think General Lynch said was the most effective way of improving your Dash?
