Lately I've been experimenting with time travel. Specifically, "episodic future thinking," which I learned from Jane McGonigal's book Imaginable is "the mental ability to transport yourself forward in time and pre-experience a future event." For the past couple of weeks, I've gathered with a small group of friends to spend some time imagining what our lives and the world might look like in 10 years. The exercise has been profoundly illuminating and creatively stimulating. I was sincerely surprised and perplexed by some aspects of my imagined future self, which has been fascinating to explore. If anyone is looking for a new framework for end of year reflection and thinking about what's ahead, I highly recommend this. I included a page from McGonigal's book below to provide more context. Thank you Denise Hearn for recommending this fantastic read!
I love this idea, especially for a leadership team. Like vision boarding but more tactical. Gonna pick up the book! Thanks and hope you are well! ❤️
Wonderful to hear you picked it up! So curious to hear your reflections!
great book and love how you chose to play with it.
Fascinating! Every so often it’s good to leave the here and now.
