“For all their bitching about what’s holding them back,
most people have a lot of trouble coming up with the defined dreams they’re being held from.”
Timothy Ferriss
from, “The 4-Hour Workweek”
How true is that?!?
Reminds me of the truism that most people spend more time planning their vacations than they spend planning their lives.
How do we possibly expect to have an ideal life is we don’t spend any time thinking about what that ideal would look like?!!?
Hmmmm…
Can’t figure that one out.
Alas, Ferris offer some (big!) questions to help jump-start your dreaming process:
- What would you do, day-to-day, if you had $100 million in the bank?
- What would make you most excited to wake up in the morning to another day?
- What are you good at?
- What could you be the best at?
- What makes you happy?
- What excites you?
- What makes you feel accomplished and good about yourself?
- What are you most proud of having accomplished in your life? Can you repeat this or further develop it?
- What do you enjoy sharing or experiencing with other people?
…
One more plug: Get the book. It rocks. In addition to having worksheets to rock the next steps of this exercise, it’s got a LOT of other “Aha!” and “No kidding!!” moments that you’ll love.
