1,818 The Rocking Chair Exercise: Planning Your Life with the End in Mind

Have you ever thought about what your future self will say about your life? Let’s talk about Rocking Chairs—a powerful tool to help you map out a meaningful and purpose-driven life. Welcome back to the Multifamily Collective! Today, I want to share a contemplative exercise that can help you plan your life with clarity and intention—the Rocking Chair Exercise. Imagine yourself at 80, 90, or even 95 years old, sitting on a porch, looking out over a serene landscape. As you reflect on your life, what person do you want to be? What stories do you want your grandchildren or great-grandchildren to tell about you? Whether it’s the legacy you’ve built in your organization, your contributions to the community, or how you’ve treated those around you—this exercise helps you visualize the person you want to become. Once you’ve defined that vision, you can start making the necessary changes today to ensure that when you reach that rocking chair moment, you’ll be proud of your life. As we near the end of the year, this is the perfect time to start reflecting and setting intentions for the future. Ready to plan your life with the end in mind?
