Time travel experiment #1

Imagine that right now, you have arrived here in the past in your younger body.  You only have a short time in which to tell your present day self what you know of the future.  You must write down your message so that it won't be forgotten and you only have 2 minutes to do it!

What would you change about your future?  What is important?  What could you say that could improve your life?

Get some paper and a pen and write yourself a letter right now.  This could be the most important letter you ever get!


STOP reading this and write that letter!
...
...
Did you write it?  If not- GO DO IT!

OK, now that you have a letter from your future self, sit down and read it.  Pretend that you don't remember writing it (your FUTURE self wrote it, not your PRESENT self).

What did you tell yourself?  Do you believe what you wrote?  What are the things that your future self says to do to fix your future?  Remember that this letter was so important that you found a way to travel back in time to warn yourself!

Are you satisfied with what you wrote?  Could you improve it?

OK, now go think about it for an hour, then come back and try the experiment again.

Here is a copy of the letter that I received from my future self.  I know that If I did not follow what my future self wrote then my future would turn out to be less than it could be.  I can avoid so much pain and suffering if I follow his advice.  You know what?  I have been doing what the letter says since I got it 2 weeks ago and I feel great!  I am getting healthier and happier.  I have written plans for my future and defined steps to get me there.  I WILL make the world a better place!
Thank you... me!

Dear Darrell,
This morning I climbed into a time machine and travelled 20 years into the past.  I woke up here in your present and am writing you this to tell you about your future.  There are things that you need... MUST do!

1. Start exercising every day!  Make it a daily habit that you enjoy- if you don't, your future will SUCK! Trust me!

2. Be Happy- You have always been a happy person, but the future holds a lot of painful experiences.  You gotta stay positive if you are gonna come out on top.  If you are happy, then those around you will be too!

3. Give- your time, your talents- everything you have will not be too much.  The more you give, the more you get.

4. Love!  Your heart is bigger than you know- FILL IT UP!

5. GOD - HE is ALWAYS with you. FIND HIM!

Be bold and mighty forces will come to your aid!
There is a REASON you are here!
You have a PURPOSE!- you are on a QUEST!
So many things to do!

I    m   ou  t o f     t me

DARE SOMETHING WORTHY
