In a world that often shies away from discussing mortality, the Memento Mori Maverick embraces it as a powerful catalyst for living an extraordinary life. This mindset isn’t about fear or morbidity—it’s about using the awareness of life’s finite nature to fuel a passionate, purposeful existence.
Listen to Episode 2: Seven Keys to Embracing a Memento Mori Mindset to hear Beth and Jim talk about the keys and what it means to be a Memento Mori Maverick.
At its core, the Memento Mori Maverick Mindset is built on seven key principles:
- Live Each Day with Intentionality: We approach every day as if it’s our last, infusing each moment with purpose and passion. This isn’t about recklessness, but about making conscious choices that align with our deepest values.
- Embrace a Growth Mindset: Life is a journey of continuous learning. We’re always seeking new experiences, knowledge, and skills—unafraid to step out of our comfort zones and embrace the unknown.
- Create Lasting Positive Impact: Our goal isn’t just personal fulfillment, but to make the world better. We live with the intention of leaving a meaningful legacy that extends beyond our own lifetimes.
- Cultivate Gratitude and Generosity: We practice daily appreciation for life’s gifts, big and small. This gratitude naturally flows into generosity, as we seek to give back and enrich the lives of others.
- Nurture Relationships: Strong, authentic relationships are the bedrock of a life well-lived. We prioritize open, caring dialogue and shared experiences to deepen our connections with loved ones.
- Prepare for Tomorrow’s Security: While living fully in the present, we don’t neglect the future. We take proactive steps to secure our financial future, protecting what matters most.
- Pursue Continuous Self-Improvement: We’re committed to becoming the best versions of ourselves. This isn’t about perfection, but about consistent, intentional growth in all areas of life.
The Memento Mori Maverick doesn’t just exist—they truly live. By embracing these principles, we transform the knowledge of our mortality from a burden into a gift—a constant reminder to make every moment count, to love deeply, to give generously, and to leave the world better than we found it.
