Aligned in Reflection: You're 80 years old
+ some 'Swiftie' wisdom
Dear Busy Woman,
“Live your life like you're 80 looking back on your teenager years…as an eighty year old looking back, you have that breakfast with your dad. It’s just little things like that, that helped me…in terms of making choices you won't regret.” - Taylor Swift 👩🏼
⏰ CONTEXT
You thought success meant getting a good job title and pay.
Yet, you keep thinking “Is that it?”; “I’m meant for more.”
Your 9-5 is draining your energy.
You are starting to feel more anxious about work.
You have panic attacks thinking this may be the rest of your life.
The dread is creeping up more and more.
And, you feel ungrateful for feeling this way...
That ever-tightening knot of dread in your stomach - a signal from your deeper self, urging for a re-evaluation of what truly matters to you.
☀️ DO: A visualisation journey
Step 1: Sit in a quiet space and imagine that you are 80 years old. Picture your life in great detail. Take your time to feel immersed in this experience.
You look down at your aged hands.
Your children have all grown up. Your parents have passed. Your friends have all aged. And your partner & your health’s declining.
You touch the wrinkles on your skin…
Imagine you are 80 years old…
Step 2: Now, you have one chance to travel back in time to this exact moment, just for 10 minutes. In the same place you’re reading this. In the same clothes you’re wearing. Surrounded by the same work and people in your life.
Step 3: You observe your present life. What does 80-year-old have to say about your life? How about your work? How about you? What is important for you to hear in this moment?
List down your reflections, as well as your potential regrets and joys.
✂️ EDIT: Take action on insight
Identify one area that your future self urged you to pay more attention to. Is it your health, relationships, or perhaps, a long forgotten passion of yours?
Commit to *one* little thing you would do differently.
📣 Share this with a friend who may benefit from this moment of introspection. Or hit ‘reply’ to share with us your reflections.
