하루하루를 인생의 마지막 날처럼

17살 때 읽은 ‘하루하루를 인생의 마지막 날처럼 산다면,
언젠가는 바른 길에 서 있을 것이다.’라는 경구에 감명 받아
50살이 되도록 매일 아침 거울을 보면서 스스로 묻는다.
‘오늘이 내 인생의 마지막 날이라면, 지금 하려고 하는 일을 할 것인가?’
아니오!라는 답이 계속 나온다면,
다른 것을 해야 한다는 걸 깨달았다.

When I was 17 I read a quote that went something like "If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right." It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself, "If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And whenever the answer has been "no" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.
