Ready for some time travel? Your Current Self was once your Future Self. And I’m guessing that Past You had big plans for Current You (previously, Future You).
In this episode, we’re exploring how our lives and habits have and haven’t evolved in the ways we expected or hoped, and how we can use that information to our (current and future) advantage.
Plus: It’s time to open a Change Academy time capsule!
Highlights
- How to make the future feel more vivid—and more motivating
- A journaling prompt that can shift your behavior right now
- What it means when your letter to the future is full of “I hope…”
- Assessing whether your present actions align with your desired legacy
