She's Got Legs(acy)





(Fuboo on Pinterest)

I'm on this kick where I ask people what they want their legacy to be in less than four words.
The feedback was thought-provoking, interesting and hilarious. One friend shared that she wanted to be known as "loving, free spirit, unstoppable and inspiring". another friend said "passion over everything", one friend said "a really big deal" and one nut that is an amazing friend said "a bad mother f****er". I'd like my legacy to be fearless, kind, adventurous and unique.
I'd like to think most would leave out words like mediocre, boring, jealous, rude, impatient, fearful, forgettable and unforgiving.
Is it crazy to think about how you want to be remembered? Nah. I think it's necessary to question yourself to make sure that you are on track and living with purpose...on purpose. It's easy to get caught up in the grind and put your legacy on hold. You know the things that you really want to do like be a mentor, world traveler, a more active parent, having family dinners, being creative, a coach, a great husband, fashion designer, song writer, take dance classes or be a business owner. Then there's the way that you want to be remembered, maybe it's adventurous, funny, healthy, joyful, accomplished, fantastic, honest, or passionate.

Like I said, I'm on this kick of asking people and I'd love to hear how you'd like to be described in under four words.


Daily Challenge:
Think about how you want to be remembered and make time to be the person that you desire to be.
