7. Lastly, list all of the things that you would be willing to die for. This is a priority setting exercise. What is the most important thing to you; so important you’d be willing to give up your life for them (loved ones, possessions, or even concepts)? Even further, what would you be willing to give up everything for? 

This exercise is meant to re-center your motivation and ask you to focus on what is really the most important things in your life, hopefully putting things in your life into a healthy perspective, and potentially promoting gratitude for the things you have.
