You’re likely not the same person today that you were 10 years ago. Ideally, you won’t be the same person you are today in 10 years. Shouldn’t you have a say in who that person will be? And honestly, if you’re aiming to be a better version of yourself, why wait 10 years?

On this episode, Dr. Benjamin Hardy revisits the show to discuss what you can do to become the person you aspire to be today without wasting time in some kind of self-imposed limbo as outlined in his latest book, Be Your Future Self Now: The Science of Intentional Transformation. Here, we’ll discuss the challenges that may be keeping you disconnected from this future self, and what you can do to make decisions that guide you toward that person instead of away from them. Listen, learn, and enjoy!
