#199 Living With Great Intentions

"We might neglect our future selves because of some failure of belief or imagination."- Derek Parfit Who do you really want to become? Are you satisfied with who you are right now? Do you identify with your future self? Or is that person still an unknown version of you?  In this episode, listen as I break down how identifying who you want to become is the key to getting the life you want; a life that is lived intentionally, a life that we are all meant to live.  Highlights:  ✅ Living with intentions means that you have a relationship with your future self. You identify with who you will become.  ✅ We are driven by pain. If we feel bored or uncomfortable, we seek something that will give us instant gratification that often leads to vices and bad decisions.  Some important stories in the episode: ✍🏼(7:22) Sharing testimonials about the Mi365 30-day Kickstart Challenge.   ✍🏼(12:34) Dr. Benjamin Hardy shares about prospection.  ✍🏼(13:49) Dr. Meg Jay shares how our brains think about our future selves, similar to how we think about strangers. This is where the empathy gap comes from. It's hard to care for the version of ourselves that we haven't met yet. 🟩🛑🟩🛑🟩🛑🟩🛑 Do you feel that you are not in control of your life?
