Be Your Future Self Now: The Science of Intentional Transformation

Product Information

I think it makes a perfect companion with his other book, “the Gap and the Gain” which he wrote with Dan Sullivan. This book will teach you the science of your Future Self and show you how to create a compelling vision of your future. But, by the end some of the key actions were things like praying or saying you are the thing you want your future self to be. The author packs so much into this book that I think I will need to read it 3 times to extract the riches from it. When we start achieving a certain degree of success, it’s easy to become complacent and stop doing the things that caused us to be successful in the first place.

Be Your Future Self Now" by Benjamin Hardy is a transformative guide that has reshaped the way I approach my goals, dreams, and daily life. I actually decided to DNF it a bunch of months ago, but somehow I picked it up again on my Kindle, and then I was so close to the end, I just went ahead and finished it. Such an endeavor precludes occasional encounters with failure, but opting out guarantees you’ll never even glimpse your full capacity.

I really like the concept of being your “future self” and appreciated how Hardy laid out most of the steps to get there. With actionable steps, it aims to help individuals overcome self-limiting beliefs and build habits that align with their goals. Procrastination is easy to rationalize; you tell yourself you aren’t giving up on your goals, you are just pushing them off ‘til tomorrow. It is crucial, therefore, to move from short-term reactive goals to more thoughtful, positive, long-term ones.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.Failure, however, will accelerate the learning curve and send you flying toward your goals faster than you could have imagined. My attitude towards my children is more positive, and I have a vision of who I want to be, and I'm doing a better job of being that future person now, instead of waiting for it to happen by magic one day in the future.

I'm not saying his life hasn't had difficulties, and I admire his accomplishments, but it's shortsighted to not acknowledge that being male, white, Christian, straight, middle class might afford access and privilege not available to others. This resonated with me and has inspired me to get more projects across the finish line despite them not being "perfect". Connect with your future self, and begin to embody your future self today through concrete actions and deliberate practice.After discussing his financial goals, Hardy was advised to set up an automatic weekly payment to his investment account. However, contemplating the future, and who we desire to be five, ten, or even twenty years down the road has has the incredible power of actually shaping our future.
