Imagine a big explosion as you climb through 3.000 ft. Imagine a plane full of smoke. Imagine an engine going clack, clack, clack, clack, clack. It sounds scary. Actually, it was what I experienced in one of my fights. In that flight, I thought I might lose my life forever as the terror of death surrounded me. Now I want to share with you 3 things I learned about myself that day.
I learnt that it all changes in an instant We have this bucket list, we have these things we want to do in life, and I thought about all the people I wanted to reach out to but I didn’t, all the experiences I wanted to have and I never did. As I thought about that later on, I came up with a saying, which is "collect bad wines". Because if the wine is ready and the person is there, I’m opening it. I no longer want to postpone anything in life. And that urgency, that purpose, has really changed my life.
The second thing I learnt that day—and this is as we clear the George Washington Bridge, which was by not a lot—I thought about, I really feel one real regret, I’ve lived a good life. In my own humanity and mistakes, I’ve tried to get better at everything I tried. But in my humanity, I also allow my self-importance to get in. And I regretted the time I wasted on things that did not matter with people that matter. And I thought about my relationship with my wife, my friends, and other people. And after, as I reflected on that, I decided to eliminate negative energy from my life. It’s not perfect, but it’s a lot better.
The third thing I learned—and this is as your mental clock starts going, "15, 14, 13." You can see the water coming. I’m saying, "Please blow up." I don’t want this thing to break in 20 pieces like you’ve seen in those documentaries. And as we’re coming down, I had a sense of, wow, dying is not scary. It’s almost like we’ve been preparing for it our whole lives. But it was very sad. I didn’t want to go. I love my life. And that sadness really framed in one thought, which is, I only wish for one thing. I only wish I could see my kids grow up.
