Have you ever stopped to think about the story your life is telling? Every day, in the choices we make, the words we speak, and the people we love, we are writing our legacy. The question is—what kind of legacy will we leave behind?
For a long time, I thought legacy was about accomplishments, titles, or the things we leave behind. But as I’ve grown, I’ve realized it’s so much deeper. Legacy is about the people we impact, the values we pass down, and the love we give. It’s about making a difference in ways that truly matter.
The truth is, you don’t have to be famous or wealthy to leave a legacy. You leave one in the way you encourage a friend, how you show up for your family, or the wisdom you pass on to the next generation. Maybe it’s a kind word that lifts someone up, a lesson learned the hard way that helps someone else avoid the same mistake, or simply leading by example in faith and integrity.
If you’re wondering where to start, begin by asking yourself:
-
What do I want to be remembered for?
-
How do I want people to feel when they think of me?
-
What lessons or values do I want to pass down?
Your legacy isn’t something you build at the end of your life—it’s something you’re creating every single day. Live with intention, love deeply, and never underestimate the power of the story you are writing.
Let’s build a legacy that truly matters. One that inspires, uplifts, and leaves the world a little better than we found it.
Let’s start today.
