Writing a future letter to myself every year

Unlock the magic of writing future letters to yourself! Discover how this fun and reflective practice can help you set goals or gain clarity.

Just left myself another future letter, using futureme.org.

I've been using them for almost a decade and have witnessed their growth from a simple clunky form (which I don't have a screenshot of) to a full blown app with user and data management.

I tried to not create an account when they first introduced their login / register functionalities, but eventually I did, and I'm glad I did because I can track them in one place.

Reading the emails is like a time capsule. Sometimes I give goals to myself, sometimes I just write about my current status and what I'm feeling.

If you think my Morning Pages habit was a lot of work, doing 3 pages a day on a journal, then there's no excuse to miss this.

You just write a few words every 6 mos or 1 year, updating your future self where you are right now.

Just an idea you might find interesting and consider doing. :)
