Point well taken, but could people please stop advocating deathbed regret as a guide to living a good life? I'll probably spend my last days unconscious, or high on painkillers or something, not likely in deep reflection about the things I have and haven't done in my life. I don't care that much what an old, broken, drugged up version of myself has to say about how I chose to spend my time. I'm a big fan of using time well, but the line "Has anyone ever regretted not having done more of xyz on their last day?" doesn't motivate me one bit not to do xyz. Speaking of which, it's beer o'clock, and I'd love to see what youtube and Netflix have to offer.
