Recently i read a small Article on Lance Armstrong(The cycling guru).
...Infact not just the cycling Guru but there is a lot more to learn from him.
He is a champion while on cycle and a bigger champion for the cancer fighting cause.
In this article he had mentioned the way he would want to die...
He Quoted
"When i am 100 years old.....
I want to come screaming down an Alpine descent on my bicycle at 75 miles per hour.
I want to cross one last finish line as my wife and my ten children applaud,
and then I want to lie down in a field of those famous French sunflowers and gracefully expire."
This line struck somewhere...i read it again...and again and again.
Just think of it...a person is excited about his death...he is planning the way he is going to die.
I mean come on...there are days i am not even excited about the way i live..
I know Lance is a kind of person who doesn't take things as they come but the things come as he wants them to come.
That's how effective people live .....they don't live by default.....they live by design.
....but this was something different ...Lance not only lives by design...he wants to design the way he dies too.
Death will not happen to him...
he will die in a way that ensures he has lived till the very last moment.
Jai Guru Dev :)
