YOU MIGHT DIE TOMORROW: Face Your Fear of Death to Live Your Most Meaningful Life

by Kate Manser

Overview

Are you living under the assumption that you’ll have time to do the things you want to do later in life? 

 

Forget the idea that death is morbid, and start using it as your greatest motivation to live your best life while you’re still alive. Whether your dream is to quit your job, travel the world, be more present with your children or partner, or just really enjoy your life, remembering that you might die tomorrow is the perspective you need to start really living before you die. 

 

This book offers entertaining stories, engaging studies, and powerful strategies — all to help you face your fear of death and light the fire in your gut to live your most meaningful life. 

 

• How Kate went from living in fear of death to make it her close friend and best source of clarity.
• How to hack your fear of death for your benefit using the psychology of mortality awareness.
• The life prioritization exercise that will help you zero in on how you want to live and give you the motivation to start today.

About the Author

At 30 years old, Kate Manser realized an important truth: Remembering that you might die tomorrow is the best inspiration to live today. After experiencing this radical shift in perspective, Kate quit her job at Google to build YOU MIGHT DIE TOMORROW, her movement to inspire people at every age to really live before they die. The movement has grown to a fanbase including an anonymous individual who spray-painted the logo on a building in Argentina, the person who hired Kate to speak to the employees of Facebook, and the thousands of people around the world who have the sticker on their cars, laptops, and bathroom mirrors. Find more of her work at www.youmightdietomorrow.com. This is Kate's debut book and, as long as she's still kicking, she has many more to come.
