How I am Designing My Future Self
AND why you should
Goal: Discuss the idea of your future self
For the last 20+ days I have been going through a transformation. After hearing Benjamin Hardy’s webinar about what you should do with the rest of 2020, I fell in love with the content and signed up for the Future Self course that he offers.
So what have I learned?
We all come in with limitations based on our past. Our original selves had many traumas and we keep replaying those today. We tend to use the past to create our present. In reality we should reframe our past as something that HAPPENED FOR US instead of to us. Lastly, how to design our Future Self.
Benjamin is the author of Personality is not Permanent and is someone I have followed over the years. One of the reasons of why I started writing on Medium is due to his articles and their influence through the years on me.
I am not a complete believer that it takes 30 days to create a habit. It takes more than that. BUT it helps. My plan is to go through the course multiple times until my notes from it and actions reflect my future self (MFS) and are ingrained in my daily actions.
So what is MFS?
My current life is that I work as a leader of people and projects industrial settings(refineries, chemical plants, industrial gasses, software, consulting) as a consultant or contributor. This role allows me to solve cool real world problems in industrial settings.
My passion is creating courses that help transform people by eliminating problems(Ultimate Course on Time and Energy Management) or filling learning needs(Refinery Basics, Chemical Plant Basics, altPMP, etc.). These courses help crazy busy professionals improve their soft and hard skills in order to be more successful, balanced, and joyful.
Currently the balance is 80% on my professional roles and 20% on my course creation role. MFS is to reverse that percentage to be 20% spent in industry and 80% on the creative side helping people transform. This will happen over time as I learn and apply. It will not happen at my current level of abilities, knowledge and execution. That is why I keep learning and experimenting. With iterations over time it will get better.
If you are interested in attending the course for free, send me an email to roberttrajkovski2015@gmail.com and I will add you to my friend list.
