The human condition is terminal, and while this can be a very uncomfortable thing to consider, failing to consider it will lead to more discomfort in the long run.
I have a unique relationship with the topic, as I had to confront my mortality head-on when I was 12 following a parkour accident. After realising how immediate mortality really is, I began on a completely different life path, an adventurous one with risks and challenges that have been deeply fulfilling to wrestle with ever since.
When you're being chased by a ghost, the best thing to do is stop running and turn around. When we avoid contemplating death or acknowledging the finitude of time, we not only begin to waste our time but also make death a more distant, scary, and foreign concept than it needs to be.
I hope this video either helps you acknowledge your mortality or reduces your fear of death a little :)
Life is short; get after it.

Channel overview:
A few years ago, I was stuck in bed, hating the universe for subjecting me to the 'sick and twisted game of life' without my consent. I was pathetic.
It was only after I realized something very important that things began getting better... life didn't suck; I did.
In the absence of friction, my mind was conjuring its own, so life was hard, yes, but it didn't have to be. The suffering was unnecessary. After a few years of incremental progress, I'm having the time of my life. I've never been in better shape, my mind has never been sharper, I've never experienced so much happiness, and it's all rooted in a deep sense of meaning that was once absent.
I had to shake myself of lots of old beliefs and patterns to get to where I am, and I believe there are millions of other people who feel stuck and could learn from my mistakes. So that's why I'm starting this channel: to share some of the insights that formed the foundation of the psychological habitat I now occupy.
I don't know exactly how the channel will develop but I'm going to start by posting my raw ideas as that's the only thing I can consistently do at this point in time.
I hope it helps!
