Exercise 7 The story of my future
Exercise no 7 takes about 20 minutes.
Exercise
First, spend five minutes by reflecting the best possible future, a reality when your dreams have come true and your life is fulfilling.
Write about the situation where your dreams have become a reality. Write in a present tense as if it were already true.
Use strong positive words, forget NOT’S ("I’m not in a hurry.") => "I can manage my own time."
Remember that you get what you order: if you write "I have time for exercising" you only get the time slot. If you write "I exercise two times a week", the action is already there.
Write about your life when your ambitions and dreams have become a reality.
Describe your dream job as accurately as you can. What does your day entail? What are you responsible for? How is your work measured? Who do you meet, who do you collaborate with, and how much human contact does your work involve? What size is the organisation around you? Are you an entrepreneur? What does your work environment look like? Are you mobile or stable? Write down as tangibly as possible the things you see and hear around you on a typical day at your dream job.
Write in present tense as if it were already happening!
Write as concretely as you can: Year, country, season, setting, people, view, colours etc.
