Where did that year go?
Just yesterday, we were ringing in the New Year
and now it is the last quarter
Time flies like an arrow,
fruit flies like a banana.
What if I told you that untapped wisdom is found within you?
Here are four letters to discover these gems 💎:
Write a letter…
…from your future self
Envision the progress you want to make one year from now. From that perspective, describe the details of what you've accomplished. Identify a North Star to aim towards in the days to come.
Future self is encouraging you to persevere, despite your present doubts.
…from your past self
Look back at old photos and you wonder how you lived like that. Unfashionable clothes. Out-of-style haircuts. Life without your PKM system.
We get entangled by the worries of the present and forget how far we've come.
Hit pause and imagine your past self getting a glimpse into the future: right now. What would they say? List all the things to be grateful for. After you visit the past, come back to the future.
Today is yesterday's future
… to your future self
Articulate all your concerns and worries. Note things that you don't want to to forget. Make the effort to remember the worthwhile.
…to your past self
Share the wisdom that you wish you would've known.
When you publish it, the advice helps those a few steps behind in the journey.
