My third story is about death. 我的第三个故事是关于死亡。 * When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: If you live each day as if it was your last, someday youll most certainly be right. It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today? 我在十七岁时读到一句话：如果你把每一天都当作生命中最后一天去 生活，那么有一天你将发现自己是完全正确的。这句话深深触动了我。从那时起，过去的33年里，我每天早晨都会对着镜子问自己：如果今天是你生命中的最后一天，你是否愿意做自己即将去做的事情呢？ * And whenever the answer has been No for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something. Remembering that Ill be dead soon is the most important tool Ive ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. 当连续很多天回答是否定时，我知道自己需要改变一些事情了。“记住你即将死去”。这是我一生中所遇到的最重要的箴言。它为我指明生命中重要选择的方向。 * Because almost everything – all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. 因为几乎所有的事情，包括所有的荣誉、所有的骄傲、所有的难堪和所有的对失败的恐惧，这一切都会在死亡面前渺小地消失。  * Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart. 只有真正重要的事情才能在死亡面前存留。你有时会陷入将要失去什么的思考和焦虑，记住你即将死去是我知道的避免这些愚蠢念头的最好办法。若你已经赤条条了无牵挂，就再没有理由不去顺心而为。 * About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. I had a scan at 7:30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas. I didnt even know what a pancreas was. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I should expect to live no longer than three to six months. 大概一年以前，我被诊断出患有癌症。我是在早晨七点半做了一个检查，结果清楚地显示我的胰腺有一个肿瘤。而我甚至当时都不知道胰腺是什么东西。医生告诉我那很可能是一种无药可救的癌症，所以我还有三到六个月的时间活在这个世界上。 * My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctors code for prepare to die. It means to try and tell your kids everything, you thought youd have the next 10 years to tell
