  Speaker 1: Summer's coming to a close, the beach bags are going back to the closet, the backpacks are coming out and, if you're like me, you're watching your kids walk out the door thinking where did time go?

  Speaker 1: Let me put this in perspective.

  Speaker 1: Don't let this season pass you by while you're stuck in emails and meetings and mixed moments.

  Speaker 1: If there's a vacation you've been dreaming about, book it.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: If there's a business idea you've been sitting on, start it.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: If there's a relationship that needs more of you, show up, because the biggest risk in life isn't failure, it's regret, and nothing stings more than looking back and realizing you were so focused on the grind that you missed the good stuff.

  Speaker 1: Live now.
