Deep dives

Shaping the Future Self

Most people use their present self to imagine their future self, resulting in minimal change. Instead, individuals should let their future self shape their present actions and decisions. By framing the future as the filter for the present, progress and growth can be achieved. This requires framing the past in a positive light and filtering for progress and growth. Similarly, individuals should focus on the future self they desire, being vivid in their visualization to build a strong emotional connection and commitment to it. As a result, individuals can operate from their future identity, leading to personal transformation and success.
