      I’ve never really believed a death bed perspective translates well to a normal day to day perspective.

      Education is extremely important.

        "I wish I'd spent more time in the office...."

        I was only joking

          Rephrase that as “I wish I’d worked harder” and I suppose it’d be a not uncommon death bed regret. For those disposed towards spending a few last moments thinking about stuff they should have done differently.

            Could have been a simple bulleted list, maybe a table if they want to categorize those deathbed sayings. But no, it has to be paragraphs and paragraphs of mostly superfluous words. So I choose not to read it. I doubt I'd regret this decision.

                I don’t think it’s a deathbed approach to life, but I think we often go through our days as if we’re immortal.

                Remembering that we only have a finite number of weekend trips, or get-togethers with a dear friend or extended family member, etc. is important to make time for people that matter.

                  No, those aren't the same thing at all. I frequently wish that I'd worked harder at university, in large part so that I could spend less time in the office. Well, this office at least.
