Have you met the version of yourself that you will be in the next 10 minutes, 10 months, 10 years?

Meeting your future self is a way of thinking to change your life. When you think of the version of yourself in the future with your goals, and dreams achieved you develop a realtionship with your future self. And the more we cultivate this realtionship the more we begin to make decisions from the perspective of our future selves.

Everyone has a future self, and utilizes this whether they are aware of it are not. Have you dreamed of saving money? Your future self is the version of yourself with the savings goal achieved. Have you dreamed of paying off your mortgage? Your future self is the version of yourself with the mortgage paid off. Have you dreamed of starting a new career? Your future is the version of yourself who is successful in that endeavor. Everyone at some time thinks of their future self.

As we begin to cultivate this realtionship with ourself, and step into our future self we manage our thoughts. We embrace ourselves, and release the need to change others, we embrace self-love, and deep self-compassion.

Here are a few ways to help you develop a strong relationship with your future self:

• Immerse yourself in becoming super clear about the life of your future self — where do they vacation? how often do they vacation? where you they work? Is it contractual work? Do they work from home? What do other colleagues say about your future self? Has your future self been recognized for their achievements? Ifso, how? Where does your future self live? How does your future self look physically? Remember, the focus if not HOW the goals/dreams achieved, but rather getting clear on what your life will look like with them achieved.
• Deeply Align with Being This Person — journal regaularly about a day in the life of your future self, state affirmations which affirm your future self, visualize, or act as if you are this person — think the thoughts this person may be thinking, wear the clothes of your future self, wear the frangrance of your future self, test drive the car of your future self, but align your thoughts with the thoughts of your future self
• Shift Your Current Reality to Reflect Your Future Self — Look for evidence — for example, does your future self run marathons? Are you walking, running, or practicing for marathons? Does your future self have a private yoga teacher? Are you enjoying yoga now via classes, videos, or enjoying learning more about yoga. Begin to take small, babay steps in the direction of your future self.

The more you gain clarity, and move in the direction of your future self the more shifts you will observe in your life. Have deep, sincer gratitude for your life right now, and celebrate each step you make in the direction of your future self.
