Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, arguably the world’s expert on people’s attitudes about death and dying, summarized a life of research in three simple questions. When people look back upon their lives, she found, they ask three questions that determine their sense of whether it was meaningful:

  1. Did I give and receive love?
  2. Did I become all I can be?
  3. Did I leave the planet a little better?
