Perspective-Placing Lifespan Stats

This Infographic Depicts Your Life in Years, Months, Weeks

— June 6, 2014 — Lifestyle
This infographic helps you visualize your life in years. Based on a lifespan of 90 years, this data from Wait But Why is organized in several graphs depicting human life in years, months and weeks. Several comparative graphs exist as well, showing the life of a typical American, famous deaths and major sports championships.

The infographic is inspiring as it poses the question 'Are you making the most of your weeks?' By putting our finite lives into perspective through small, digestible squares, it makes you think about the way you've been spending your time. Whether you want to picture your life in years or shorter time segments, the important thing is you find a way to seize the day and live in the present.
