Have you ever thought about this?

Few people want to be remembered for their material achievements. More likely, we all want to be remembered for being kind and caring; someone who helped others; who loved and gave unstintingly. Question: What are we doing to deserve that kind of eulogy? This is where it pays to live it backwards. Spend time thinking of what's important to you and how you want to be remembered. Write your eulogy. Then live by it.
