Beginning with the end in mind
Everyone is working harder than ever, but they are going nowhere. People are living tired, frustrated, disappointed and having severe lack of meaningful work. It is happening because they are doing it without having the vision and clarity.
If you too are in the same rat race, I want you to stop for a moment. I want you to dream of your future self. I want you to know who you want to be. I want you to align yourself so that you are visually, emotionally, physically and mentally committed to your ultimate life goals. I want you to connect with your unique self and then define the personal, moral, ethical guidelines which will help you present your best self to the world and make you live an accomplished life.
Before you go any further on knowing what you want to achieve in your life, I suggest you pause for 5 to 10 minutes — Sit straight, close your eyes, do deep breathing, and take yourself to your distant future self. Start dreaming your future self with these questions:
- If someday you have to make your biopic, what would you like it to be?
- On your death day when you are counting your last breath, what is that you must accomplish to claim “What a worthy life I lived?”
- What else would you like to do if you have all the money and resources of the world?
