How To Be Remembered After You Die

Being remembered in a positive light after death is a great accomplishment. Most people think it’s a waste of time to think so far ahead, but in my opinion thinking with this perspective can be quite beneficial. 

By living one’s life with this posthumous goal in mind, one automatically begins to fix lot problems and begins to work on making certain constructive adjustments so that he or she really is remembered positively.

Ultimately this positive change in lifestyle not just results in the person being remembered after death but it makes the person’s life more rewarding and successful.

7 Ways to be Remembered after Death:

1. Give Generously

When you give with selfness and love you start a cycle of positivity and affection. You build a bond with the person you are giving to, from which you both benefit. You receive the personal reward of peace, happiness, and harmony, while the receiving person receives your love.

This love is what makes a person positively remembered after death.

Giving is better than receiving because giving starts the receiving process. -Jim Rohn

2. Have Time for Others

Time is the most valuable thing a man can spend. -Theophrastus

The people you remember the most are those who you shared positive time with. Time is the most valuable thing a person has and by sharing it with others one nurtures mutual love. This love benefits both people and brings happiness to their lives.

3. Be Helpful

Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better.  It’s not.  -Dr. Seuss

By simply being helpful you can make one person’s life a little better. This sense of care allows love to flourish and grow. This love is what brings peace in life.

4. Respect Everyone

By showing respect you earn a quality reputation which makes people very affectionate towards you. This affection is something which is not easily forgotten and therefore makes you a more memorable person.

When you are content to be simply yourself and don’t compare or compete, everybody will respect you. -Lao Tzu

5. Develop an Open, Loving Attitude

If you want to be loved, you have to show love. Be kind, gentle, and loving to everyone you meet. Don’t put anybody down and treat everybody fairly.

The one thing people that remember the most is love.

6. Be Genuine

When you are genuine and sincere you automatically become a more likable person, who people love and remember.

My guiding principles in life are to be honest, genuine, thoughtful and caring. -Prince William

7. Show Compassion

If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion. -Dalai Lama

Compassion leaves a profound imprint on both the giver and receiver. It leads to mutual happiness, peace, and a sense of connection between two people. It is the number one way to be liked, loved and remembered.
