This proves to be profoundly healing for people, mostly

because we do not evolve past our former selves; we simply

grow upon them.

However, this practice can work the opposite way as well.

You can also visualize and connect with your future self—

the version of you that you are growing into, or the person

you know you are meant to be.

WHAT WOULD MY MOST POWERFUL SELF DO TODAY?

The first step to becoming your most powerful self is to

literally envision that person. Don’t take yourself out of

your current context, either. Begin to ask yourself: What

would the most powerful version of me do right now?

What would they do with this day? How would they respond

to this challenge? How would they move forward?

How would they think? What would they feel?

Your most powerful self needs to be the CEO of your

life. It is the person making managerial decisions, governing

everything else. This is the editor-in-chief, the

matriarch or patriarch. You are working for your most

powerful self.

Once you have a clearer image of what your most powerful

self is like, you then need to evaluate what habits,

traits, and behaviors are actively holding you back from

fully embodying that person.
