Yeah.
I mean, when you start to make your future self the standard,
Then it becomes a massive filtering tool where it's like, what would my future self do?
Or if I was my future self now, how would they approach this?
And how would my future self want me to do this?
We were talking about Viktor Frankl earlier in this call, and that's literally what Viktor Frankl invited people to do.
He said, I want you to imagine this moment that you're sitting in right now and imagine that you had already lived it.
So whatever you're doing, let's just call it you're on your way home from work.
and you're about to go home from work.
So let's just imagine that this moment right now has already passed and you acted poorly.
Like you, you did, you acted the way you're, you're, you're about to act.
Now I want you to, and you're, and you're having to deal with the consequences of whatever it is you're going to do, but now you get to come back and relive it again and you get to actually do it differently and better.
Like that, that's something that,
And so that's just using your future self as the standard.
Like I know that my future self wants the best for me and also wants me to be my best.
And so if I start to make my future self the standard, then all of a sudden I'm going to start making a lot better decisions in the present because not only am I thinking about what's best for me in my future, but I'm now using that as the tool
for making the best decisions now, whether that's call it I'm at home.
And I could be engaging with my kids on a really high level, which is what my future self would probably want me to do.
But instead I'm just kind of spacing out, like sitting on my phone.
Like if I'm using my future self as the standard and my future self being what would be ultimately best for me and what I value most, it becomes a lot easier to make the decision here and now to do what's best for the present and the future.
