Summary

What If This Was the Last Time? Have you ever stopped to think, What if this was the last time I got to do this? Not the first time. The last time. That thought has been hitting me hard lately—and I believe it’s one of the most powerful mindset shifts you can make to live a deeper, richer life. Too often, we rush through our days on autopilot—scrolling, working, hustling—without realizing we’re living what will one day be our “good old days.” We treat moments with our kids, our friends, and our loved ones like they’ll happen forever… until one day, they don’t. The last lunch with your grandmother. The last time your child asked you to tuck them in. The last baseball game you ever played. These moments come quietly, without warning, and once they’re gone, they’re gone forever. In this episode, I walk you through how to catch yourself in the act of being alive. I share personal stories—some beautiful, some heartbreaking—that have taught me the priceless value of truly being present. I’ll show you how to recognize the sacred in the ordinary, to pause long enough to take it in, and to live each conversation, each hug, and each sunset like it might be the last one. Because the truth is, you don’t always know when you’re living the last time. But if you’re paying attention, you can live every moment as if it’s something beautiful. By the end of our time together, you’ll see that the depth of your life isn’t found in the big, flashy milestones—it’s found in the small, fleeting moments you choose to fully experience. My hope is that this conversation will inspire you to hug longer, listen deeper, laugh louder, and remember that right now is a moment worth keeping forever. Key Takeaways: Why life’s most sacred moments often feel ordinary when they’re happening How to live with “the richness of the experience” instead of rushing to the next thing The mindset shift that turns everyday moments into treasures Real stories that will make you rethink how you treat time with loved ones Practical ways to start living like this could be the last time—without living in fear Because one day, it will be the last time. And when that day comes, I want you to know in your heart… you didn’t miss it.

0:00.0	This is the Admiral Show.
0:08.1	All right, welcome back to the show, everybody.
0:09.9	So very excited to be with you today.
0:11.2	Thanks for being back.
0:12.3	And, you know, a few weeks ago, I did a show that went incredibly viral.
0:16.2	And we titled that show QTR, which stood for quality time remaining.
0:54.8	And it really got millions of you thinking about your life and how much time you have left in life. And so it's been a while now. It's been several weeks. And since that show came out, I've had this concept and this thought just resonating in my mind that I wanted to share with you. And I'm very excited. I have a feeling this episode's going to be shared even more than that one. And here's the thought that I have with you. As you know, I wrote a book. My second book was called The Power of One More and that someday you're going to give something one more try and you're going to have one more conversation. And I thought about quality time remaining combined with the power of one more and it got me to thinking about really fully being present and I got something I really want to
1:01.3	talk to you about today something that might hit you right in the heart and it's about being
1:05.6	present but probably not in the kind of buzzwordy kind of be mindful kind of way that you think
1:10.5	I mean really be present
1:12.5	and whether or not we are and what if something was happening in your life for the last time
1:18.5	not the first time but the last time in your life what if you knew it at the time would you
1:26.7	treat that moment a little bit differently?
1:28.2	Would you treat that conversation?
1:29.4	Would you treat that experience differently?
1:31.1	Because there's so many moments in our lives that are sacred, but they come across as ordinary,
1:36.5	but they're beautiful moments.
1:38.2	And we don't realize it until they're gone that that was the last time that something
1:42.8	happened in our life.
1:44.1	And by the time we figured out, we've already missed a chance to really feel them,
1:47.3	to really be present.
1:49.1	Today, I want to kind of take you through a walk down, maybe memory lane a little bit,
