We’ve all had the experience of working toward goals today that would benefit us in the future. Goals like exercising more, losing weight, or saving for retirement.
Yet when faced with early-morning alarms or tempting desserts, we may lose sight of our goals.
But what if the answer to sticking with them was to form a relationship with a very special person – future you?
Hal Hershfield, author of the book, Your Future Self: How to Make Tomorrow Better Today, has spent his career studying what happens when we build a closer relationship with our future self. His work reveals how this relationship can have an outsize impact on our success, one that extends beyond weight loss, fitness, and a comfortable retirement.
