A short YouTube clip of Robin Sharma reflecting during a morning walk on the concept of legacy. He argues that obsessing over legacy is ego-driven and less important than living well in the present—focusing on values, productivity, kindness, positivity, and persistence.
Hope you're amazing. I wanted to talk about this word called legacy while I have you here, while I'm doing my mountain, my morning walk. And legacy is really about how you'll be remembered when you're no longer here. Our culture celebrates legacy, encourages us to think about our mark. At the end of the Everyday Hero manifesto, I suggest to you, legacy is a waste of time. Time. Because your legacy is really about.
What people will say about what you and your dead. And I think that's an ego sport. Doesn't matter. You'll just be a pile of ashes on someone's fireplace mantle next to their Little League trophies. What really matters is how you live while you're alive. Your values, your productivity, your positivity, your kindness, your persistence in the face of difficulty. Live while you're alive. Don't worry about your legacy.
