Resume Virtues vs. Eulogy (Legacy) Virtues

https://www.ted.com/talks/david_brooks_should_you_live_for_your_resume_or_your_eulogy?language=en

This "Ted Talk" is kind of cerebral--meaning it is a deeper way of thinking.  Can 8th graders think on this level?  When I think of all of you in my class, I do think you will "get it."  So I will show this in class.

Think about these questions as you watch:

1.  How would you describe the "Adam 1 and Adam 2" idea to someone else?

2.  What is the danger of only sticking to an "Adam 1" mentality?

3.  What do you want your "Eulogy/ Legacy Virtues" to be?  List at least four.
