Be Your Future Self Now

When you start investing time, energy and resources into your future self, no matter how small, it builds commitment and momentum. The more you invest, the more those investments compound to accelerate your growth.

Make a tiny investment today with your future self in mind. Then go a little bigger tomorrow. Investing pays either your current or future self. Choose the latter for exponential returns.

• To effectively make progress, you need a vivid vision of your specific future self, clear metrics and milestones.
• Without visualizing in rich detail where you're going, people wander aimlessly.
• Paint a picture of your future abilities, lifestyle, impact and more.
• Defining the specifics makes the future tangible so you can identify the stepping stones to get there.
• Milestones mark the path.

• Rather than playing it safe within your comfort zone, fail at the level of your future abilities.
• Push past what you can already do easily. Commit to your future self's greatness, even if it means stumbling in the short term.
• Experience momentary failure now to rapidly gain skills of your future self. Staying comfortable limits necessary growth.

Embrace failure on the journey to actualizing your potential.

Many people seek external validation like fame, wealth and prestige as success. But true success is living and working in alignment with your aims and highest future self, whatever that looks like for you.

• Even if it means giving up public acclaim to have a small, simple life doing what you love.
• Fame doesn't equal success if it steers you from your purpose.
• Define success based on your vision, not others' narrow perceptions.

Like God, you have inherent capacity to evolve into an elevated version of yourself.

This life is one phase in your infinite evolution. While God gives freedom to choose your path, you can commit to move towards your highest potential future self.

• Make the choice to progress along your unique trajectory.
• Small steps compound into great leaps over time.
• Have faith in your capacity to gradually become your future self.

Define your future self and determine the 3 most essential priorities to fulfill your purpose. Your priorities should align with and excite your future self vision.

Contextualizing your purpose makes it vivid and personal. With clarity, you can eliminate distractions and focus on the vital few goals to actualize your purpose.

Know the essential priorities fueling your future self. 

Relentlessly evaluate if activities align with your clarified priorities. Lesser goals waste precious time and resources. Ask if they are taking you toward your objective and if they are the most impactful actions you could do.

With finite energy, continually refocus on your north star.

Upgrade from needing your goal to knowing it's already yours. Act from the identity of your future self who has already achieved the goal. Knowing accelerates your purpose more powerfully than needing.

When your identity stems from your future commitments rather than present ones, you operate at a higher level.

Be, then do, then have. 

Don't limit your asks based on current perceptions. When you ask boldly, doors open. Persistently ask for what your highest future self desires.

As you clarify your future self, continuously refine requests to align with your expanding vision. You receive at the level you believe is possible, so elevate your asking.
