Connecting With Your Future Self

from The Century Plan · host Dennis Hall and Sarah Steele

The Century Plan is back! After a summer of planning and preparation, we're thrilled to launch Season 4 of our podcast, where we move from theory to practice. This season, we're tackling the big question: How can we inspire people to take action on the insights we've been sharing? And more importantly, what's holding us back? In our first episode, we dive into a challenge we all face—connecting with our future selves. How can we motivate ourselves to protect our future—20, 30, or even 40 years from now—when it often feels like we're sacrificing our present? Here's what we cover: 𝐓𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭: How it prevents us from taking necessary steps in our financial lives. 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐯𝐞𝐬: Why it's so hard and what we can do about it. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐜𝐨𝐬𝐭: The difficulty of thinking long-term and overcoming the fear of present-day sacrifice.
