Life often feels short — days blur, weeks vanish, years slip by. But as Stoic philosopher Seneca reminds us: “It is not that we have a short time to live, but that we waste much of it.”
In this episode of Daily Morningcast, Alex Hill explores how time is not inherently brief, but easily squandered when we live without intention. With wisdom from philosophy, pop culture moments like Dead Poets Society and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, and a poignant real-world reflection from Giorgio Armani — who late in life admitted his one regret was spending too much time working and not enough with loved ones — this conversation challenges us to ask:
Where am I wasting time? And how can I redirect it toward what truly matters?
Join us for a reminder that life doesn’t need more years to feel full — it needs more presence, purpose, and depth.
