11. Be The Present Self That Your Future Self Will Be Thankful For

When doing anything, whether you enjoy it in the moment or not, sometimes it helps to ask if the future you will thank the present you. It helps keep your present decisions into perspective within the scope of your goals for the future. Because remember: "Picture yourself 5 months from now; you can either be in the same place, a worse place, or in a better place. But the beauty of you picturing yourself is that you get to choose, right in this moment, where you want to be."
