What's in 2027? The powerful idea of a personal ten-year-plan can change your life

A few years ago - after a challenging time - I tried to learn more about personal development. I read a lot of books, blogs and heard many podcasts covering this topic. I do this until now.

Recently I stumbled over a Tim Ferriss podcast with an Interview with Debbie Millman. She is not only an outstanding graphic designer, but also a very heart touching and inspiring person. I highly recommend to this episode: http://fourhourworkweek.com/2017/01/12/how-to-design-a-life-debbie-millman

At the end of the interview, Debbie came up with "Your Ten-Year Plan for a Remarkable Life" which felt so powerful when heard it. I'm sure she didn't develop the idea of a Ten-Year-Plan, but the way she talked about it, was absolute inspiring. In a comment to this podcast episode a reader transcribed the important part of Debbies Ten-Year-Plan:

"It is Winter 2027. What does your life look like? What are you doing? Where are you living? Who are you living with? Do you have pets? What kind of house are you in? Is it an apartment are you in the city are you in the country? What does your furniture look like? What is your bed like? What are your sheets like? What kind of clothes do you wear? What kind of hair do you have? Tell me about your pets, tell me about your significant other, do you have children? do you have a car? Do you have a boat? Talk about your career? What do you want? What are you reading? What are you making? What excites you? What is your health like? Write this one day ten years from now. So one day in the winter of 2027, what does your whole day look like? Start from the minute you wake up, brush your teeth, have your coffee or tea, all the way through until minute you tuck yourself in at night. What is that day like for you? Dream big, dream without any fear. Write it all down. You don’t have to share it with anyone other than yourself. Put your whole heart into it. Write like there is no tomorrow; write like your life depends on it because it does. And then read it, once a year, and see what happens."

It will be my next exercise in personal development to set up my Ten-Year-Plan for a remarkable life. And I will read it every single year. I'm curious what things look like in 2027.

Do you have a Ten-Year-Plan too? What should be included for you. Feel free to share your Ideas about a Ten-Year-Plan in common and - if you like - about your personal Ten-Year-Plan.
