Episode 108: The Lies We Tell Ourselves About Time

What would you do differently if you knew you only had nine months left to live?

It's a difficult question—but it has a way of revealing what matters most.

In this deeply personal episode, Coach Del reflects on her late mother's birthday and the annual life inventory it inspires. Through that reflection, she explores one of the most common lies we tell ourselves: the belief that we have more time.

Listeners are invited to consider how assumptions about "later" influence their decisions, relationships, dreams, and priorities—and how living with greater intentionality can help us build lives with fewer regrets.

This episode also introduces a foundational concept from Del's upcoming book, Ruthless Intentionality, and begins a special series exploring the pillars of intentional living.

In This Episode:
  • Why "later" can become one of the most dangerous words in our vocabulary
  • The illusion of unlimited time
  • What rises to the surface when we imagine having only nine months left to live
  • Relationships, experiences, legacy, purpose, peace, and faith
  • Why life is short in a clarifying—not depressing—way
  • The connection between intentional living and regret
  • The origin story behind Ruthless Intentionality
Scripture

📖 Psalm 90:12

"Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom." (NLT)
