- Are you pretty much living the life you want?
- Are you able to be happy now, most of the time?
- Are you making progress, even if it's small, toward achieving your goals?
- Are you having fun?
- Are you helping others? Making a contribution?
- Are you eating better than you did last year?
- Do your loved ones know that you love them?
- Do you still have dreams?
No one's getting out of here alive anyway, might as well assume a bit more risk and see what happens.
