In one of my workshops I bring the participants, through a guided visualization, to their deathbed - a chance to reflect back at their life. After looking at the movie of their life, they look at the values they acquired, at their successes and regrets, at the people they spend too little time with and at the people they spent too long with. They have a chance then to look at how would they like to spend their last hour and with whom. I give them a break after this process. And it seem that suddenly everyone is totally involved in life again.
People call their parents, their children, neglected friends and lovers.
Suddenly there's a new sense of urgency and passion in their eyes. And keep your eyes, ears and heart open, as life is the classroom, the lesson is continuous and the exam is at the very end. So don't forget to laugh, to hug, and keep on moving ahead. Nisandeh Neta, founder of Open Circles, an international center for personal-growth and leadership.
