If you’re 30 and still living with your mom,
unmotivated to go out and get a job or a
girlfriend, here’s a quirky but effective way
to encourage you to go out and live your life
while you still can – The Tikker, or “death
watch” counts down how much time you have
left until you kick the bucket. Remember the
website that did the exact same thing? Well,
this is the 2.0 portable version.
Calling it “The Happiness Watch”, its inventor
Fredrik Colting explains that he wanted to
find a way to determine people “to cherish
the time and the life that we have been given,
to honor it, suck the marrow from it, seize
the day and follow our hearts. And the best
way to do this is to realize that seconds, days
and years are passing never to come again.”
Here’s how the watch works. To set up the
Tikker, you first need to fill out a
questionnaire with information about your
medical history, weight, lifestyle details such
as if you drink or smoke and how often you
exercise. You are also asked to give
information about any diseases that may run
in your family. All these are factored in and
you are given a score representing your
entire lifespan including the years you have
already lived. After your current age is
deducted from this score, the countdown
begins.
You might think you’ll get an estimation of
your time of death, such as “mid-80s”, but
that’s not the case – the Tikker counts down
from years to seconds so that you can get a
true feeling that with each passing second,
you are getting closer and closer to death.
Too depressing for you? The creators – “a
group of designers, free-thinkers, lovers and
life-aficionados” say “it’s not about how
much time you HAVE, it’s what you DO with
it. A week spent in love and happiness can be
worth more than a year spent in agony. If
you knew how much time you had left,
wouldn’t you use that time wisely?” adding
that “While death is nonnegotiable, life isn’t.
The good news is that life is what you make
of it – and oh boy can it be beautiful!”
Are you sold on the concept yet? If you are
and want have a Tikker of your own, you can
preorder one by paying $39 for the simple
black design or $1,000 for a custom one in
pantone color – limited offer only. So hurry
up, happiness guaranteed!
