Can envisioning your Ideal Day help you to have an Ideal Day?
According to Jason Womack, it can.
Every morning, he spends 15 minutes writing about what his day would look like if it was “ideal.” And he believes he’s more productive as a result.
Of course, what an Ideal Day looks like will differ from person to person. But, to me, an Ideal Day isn’t a “perfect day.” And it isn’t necessarily a day when I do everything on my to-do list. (Although it can be.) Instead, it's a day when I can go to bed feeling content about what I got done, and how things (projects, meetings, activities) went in general. And I keep that in mind as I envision my Ideal Day.
I admit, this isn't an exercise I do regularly. But, when I have done it, I do feel more motivated to do the things I need to do. It’s like my subconscious wants to make my dreams of an Ideal Day come true, and gives me the motivation I need to make it happen.
Hmmmm. Sounds like something I should do more often, doesn't it?
