Jodi Wellman — How to Live a Life Worth Living

Jodi Wellman is a leading authority in living lives worth living. As a speaker and facilitator, she helps her clients live squanderfree lives while they’re lucky enough to still be above ground. While clearly beginning with the big end in mind, she named her business 4000 Mondays because it shines a light on the finite number of weeks we have to live like we mean it.

Here are the steps you need to follow to also get purposeful living.:

1. Wake up to the fact that we will all die one day

2. Use that knowledge to catalyze a desire to live a life that is true to what you want

3. Make the most of the time you have left by doing things that fill you up

1. Wake up to the fact that we will all die one day

1. Wake up to the fact that we will all die one day. We all have a finite number of days on this earth, and one day we will all die. This realization can be a tough pill to swallow, but it is an important step in living a life that is authentic and true to ourselves. When we understand that we only have a limited amount of time, it can help us to prioritize what is important to us and to make sure that we are spending our time in ways that matter. 2. Understand that our time is limited. When we realize that our time is limited, it can help us to focus on what is truly important to us. It can also help us to let go of things that are no longer serving us, such as grudges, negative thoughts, and harmful habits. 3. Make the most of the time we have. Once we accept that our time is limited, we can then focus on making the most of the time we have. This may mean spending more time with loved ones, pursuing our passions, or simply enjoying the moment. Whatever it is that brings us joy, we should make sure that we are making time for it in our lives.

2. Use that knowledge to catalyze a desire to live a life that is true to what you want

Use your knowledge of your own mortality to catalyze a desire to live a life that is true to what you want. Reflect on what you want your life to look like and what you want to achieve. Consider what steps you need to take to make those things happen. Make a plan to take action towards your goals. This may include making some lifestyle changes, pursuing new opportunities, or taking risks. Be prepared for setbacks and challenges along the way. Remember that your mortality is a reminder that every day counts and that you need to make the most of your time.

3. Make the most of the time you have left by doing things that fill you up

If you’re feeling stuck in a corporate job that’s no longer fulfilling, it can be tough to take the leap and start your own business. Here are a few things to keep in mind that can help you make the transition: 1. Remind yourself that you only have a finite number of Mondays in your life. This can help you reframe your thinking and prioritize what’s truly important to you. 2. Talk to others who have made a similar transition. They can offer valuable insights and advice on what worked for them and what to avoid. 3. Make a plan. Map out what you want to do and how you’re going to make it happen. This will help you feel more confident and prepared as you take the next step.
