How to Act As If

When you set a goal, you’re auditioning for a role.

The role of future you.

Congratulations, you got the part!

Now your job is to learn the lines.

You have to practice acting like the future you over and over until you get it just right.

How does she talk?

What does she wear?

What time does she get up?

What action does she take?

Step into the staring role of FUTURE YOU.

You will be awkward at first.

Keep practicing.

Until one day, you’ll realise that the entire set around you has come together - and you no longer have to act like the person who can achieve your goal.

You will BE the Future You.

You will achieve the goal because you will be the kind of person who achieves that kind of goal.

Act into your future self, and one day, you will be her.
