Giving praise before or after I complain. It seems to ease the effect of the complaint

Fascinating!

What’s one thing you’ve done this year that contributes to your legacy?

Even if it is something small, what is something you've done to start building a legacy?

How will social media change the way future generations remember us?

The warnings around social media always focus on the potential harm for this life, such as future employers passing you up for questionable posts, but how do those effects ripple to future generations? How does a harmful social media presence today impact the way you will be received years from now? And on the other side, how can social media help us leave a good legacy?

What values are most important to be remembered for?

David Christenfeld — Mon, 06 Apr 2026 14:23:55 +0000

For me, I think one of the most important values to be remembered for is generosity. Prioritizing people over your resources (within reason) is a huge signifier of a person who led a 'good' life, and I hope future generations don't look back and say that I didn't help others when I could have

Have your parents’ or grandparents’ legacies shaped your life choices?

One thing that I've been thinking about is how long somebody's name is remembered for if they don't do anything to leave a legacy. As in, if I stopped trying today, in how many generations will my name be gone? Do you even leave a legacy if you don't put effort and intent into it?

At what age did you start thinking about your legacy? What advice would you give to yourself at that time if you could?

Some potential follow up questions; Do you wish you had started thinking about it earlier? Later?

RE: Calling Over Legacy: Are We Building God’s Kingdom or Our Own?

@benismulenda I love that idea. Intentionality is such an important component of this question and I think sums it up beautifully. Who am I doing this for is that perfect question to ask yourself. It makes me think about an amazing book by Amira Mittermeier called Giving to God. Which is about Islamic charity in Egypt following the 2011 Revolution, but applies broadly across the religious spectrum. She really focuses on the idea of giving on behalf of God, rather than on behalf of yourself. Worth a read!
