It's a modern day memento mori, but is a bit nicer than keeping a skull on your desk https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memento_mori https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memento_mori I'm not to keen on motivating myself through nihilism, because I don't think humans are really supposed to work like that. When I start caring too much about something, I try and reevaluate my goals instead. e.g. what I think the good things in life are to me, and whether what I'm doing is genuinely going to get me there.
