Mel Abraham says legacy isn't what you leave behind when you die. It's built in everyday moments: a smile, a kind word, a compliment. Stack enough of these small exchanges and you've created something that lasts.
Legacy isn't something you leave behind. When we talk about legacy, it's usually we've got to die to leave it. I go, no, no, no, no, no, no. Legacy isn't something you leave behind for someone. Legacy is something you leave within someone in the moments of interaction you have with them. And when you stack the moments of your life together correctly, That's legacy. Yeah, because here's the thing, it's the moments that actually will matter. And it can be simply a smile, a hello, you look great today, I'm proud of you. If it just shifts someone in that moment, you've created legacy. And if we understood the power of the moments like that, maybe we would give each moment the reverence it deserves.
