Here’s a cool (and weird!) motivation trick I learned yesterday…
- Download the “FaceApp” (free version) app on your phone
- Upload a photo of yourself
- Use the “age” filter to make yourself look 30 years older…
- Print the photo, and hang it above your work desk.
Here’s what old Joel looks like…
Now, use that photo of your future self as a daily reminder. Every time you see it, remember…
- Life is short! Soon you will be old and grey, so make the most of every day while you are young!
- Ask yourself, “Am I making the right choices today, so that I’m becoming the best version of myself later?”
- What is 1 thing you can do — right now — to make your future self proud? (eg. Take a risk, save an extra dollar, try that xyz hobby you’ve been wanting to do)
*****
Happy Thursday! Make it a great day, because your future self is watching!
