Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life.

I look at people in certain circumstances, and I fall into caretaker mode real quick, real easy. I like to shoulder people up and carry them along, and then I end up creating some kind of dependency. I enable. It's really, really hard for me.
