🙏 The Shift
Meet Your Best Possible Self
Psychologist Laura King had people spend just twenty minutes a day, for four days, writing about their best possible future — a life where everything they'd hoped for had worked out.
😊 Boosted mood🎯 Increased optimism
It wasn't wishful daydreaming — the exercise's power came from getting specific: what does that life actually look like, day to day? Vague hope doesn't move the needle. Detailed hope does.
👉 Try This Today
Spend five minutes tonight writing about your life a few years from now, assuming things go about as well as they reasonably could. Be specific — what does an ordinary Tuesday look like?
