Walter Green is a former CEO, a best-selling author, and a close friend to Ric for more than 30 years. But this episode focuses on the most recent chapter of Walter's life, and his work founding the "Say it Now" movement.
"Say It Now" inspires people to live a happier, more purposeful life by expressing more gratitude and by having "Living Tributes." The point is to honor people who have had a significant impact on us now - not at funerals, where it's too late. Ric and Walter discuss the original inspiration for Say It Now, how to practice gratitude in everyday life, and how to design your life for better outcomes.
If you enjoy this conversation, we recommend checking out Walter's recent TED Talk, called "Why we should eulogize the living." As Walter says - "it’s often too late, but never too soon."
This is 3 Things, with Walter Green.

Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
