Today’s feature book is one that I can’t wait to read with others. Yes, I’ve read it myself, but I want to talk about with other people and share insights ASAP. That’s when you know you’ve stumbled across a great book.

And that book is Your Future Self: How to Make Tomorrow Better Today, and it’s written by Hal Hershfield.

When my mastermind group asks me to recommend our next book we’ll read together, this one will be at the top of my list.

In my course, Note-Making Mastery, we talk at length about the importance of writing notes as if you’re writing for someone else. Why? Because, I argue, Future You is someone else.

In his book, Hal shows us how to connect with our “future selves” so that we can improve our lives right now and achieve our greatest hopes for the future.

Your Future Self presents the science, describes the mental mistakes we make in thinking about the future, and gives us practical advice for imagining our best future so we can make that vision a reality.

I hope you’ll click the play button below to learn more about Hal and his work. For a summary, just keep scrolling.

In today’s episode, I ask Hal:

* Are we the “same” over time?

* Is future me really…me?

* Ways we can make the future closer and the present easier

* And lots more!
