Change Your Present

In the discussion Change Your Past, we discussed how to use your present self in order to heal your past self, whether it be a trauma or simply a time when you weren't validated or didn't feel heard or understood. You can use the same method to change who you are now using your future self. Simply imagine yourself as who you want to be and already being that person in the future. Start acting as that future self would act when you become that future person. If you want to quit a habit or addiction, imagine your future self where you are free from that vice and act in a manner that is fitting with the future self who is free from whatever habit or vice you are trying to break.. It will take some time for the old habit to fall away as you create the new habit of your future self. 

Present you is too weak to be able to quit, which is why you haven't done it yet. Simply step into the role of your future self who is strong enough and use the energy that the future self gives you. Look at all the things present you has accomplished that past you never thought possible. Future you looks back at present while you never doubting and never questioning your ability and strength. It is the fact that the future self has the strength to not have that habit that proves present you has already quit.

This post is not to tell you to quit anything or change anything about yourself. You are perfect the way you are, and Thank You For Being You. This post is for those who think they need to change something about themselves. The journey that only goes in a circle that ends up right back where it began. Peace and Love!
