This was a day before my Dad passed away earlier this year. I was watching my best friend's families guesthouse while they were on a trip. (They're also our neighbours) Spent the entire day working on the business, writing content, and doing calls. I went over a few times that day to check it he needed anything, but he seemed fine. He was in much better condition than when he got out of the hospital (almost normal again) We had a small argument about something as we usually did before I left again. Later, I saw that he tried to call me a few minutes before my next call. But I thought it wasn't too urgent, so I went ahead with the call first. (My father had a reputation of calling me to ask for the smallest things haha) When I went home to see what he wanted, he had left to sleep over at his girlfriend's house. The next morning, my mother woke me up next at the house I was at and told me that he got rushed to the hospital the previous night and that they called to say that the family should come because he's not gonna make it. Took me a while to process it. Checked my phone and saw that his gfs son messaged me to say that he was asking to see me. So we rushed home and called my uncle to take us to the hospital. And just before we left the house, my Mom got a call to say that he had passed away. Truth is, I'm not exactly sure why I'm writing this. It's just one of the many things that's been on my mind since it's happened. My life was consumed by online business, making money and productivity for the longest time that I didn't have time or energy to spend with my friends and family. - Disappear for a few months - Eliminate all distractions - Put your phone on DND at all times I did it all. I justified it by saying: "Once I have money, I'll use that to spend time with them and make them happy". That was the reason I got into online business in the first place. This doesn't hurt NEARLY as much as it used to the first month or so. But that level of regret is not something I'd ever want anyone to experience. So remember... There's more to life than all this. Spend time with your friends and family even if it's not "optimal" for your productivity every now and then. Memories are all you'll have of them at the end of the day and it'll mean a lot more to you once they're gone. It took me experiencing something like this to realize it but hopefully, since I did, you won't have to. I didn't want to talk about things related to my Dad's death because I didn't want any pity or use it for views (because I know things like this perform well). But it's played a huge part in my development as a person and it's a very rare experience going through this at my age, so it would be a disservice to you if I didn't talk about it. Appreciate you if you've read this far. There's more to come in the future.

Spent the entire day working on the business, writing content, and doing calls.

I went over a few times that day to check it he needed anything, but he seemed fine.

He was in much better condition than when he got out of the hospital (almost normal again)

We had a small argument about something as we usually did before I left again.

Later, I saw that he tried to call me a few minutes before my next call.

But I thought it wasn't too urgent, so I went ahead with the call first.
