Why Futurize Yourself?
Design your life on purpose through generating a relatively dynamic personal narrative of our past and future
Futurist, psychologist, educator and author of "Future Consciousness: The Path to Purposeful Evolution," Thomas Lombardo writes in his book "The pursuit of virtue - The path to a good future" the following on generating a relatively dynamic personal narrative of our past and future:
There is special value in assessing and rewriting both our personal and grand narratives. These activities enhance both our self-awareness and our understanding of the grand scheme of things, and support greater coherence, meaning, deep purpose and transcendence, as well as a sense of growth and direction. Rewriting the personal narrative creates an action-oriented, self-empowered, narrative framework for our personal future. Using the personal narrative as a framework for self-understanding and future guidance, first we need to self-consciously assess our past.
In order to expand and enrich our consciousness of time, we need to more clearly understand our past and how it fits with our evolving personal identity. We should especially emphasize accomplishments and important events that are connected with the development of the potential future evolution of ourselves. History can be reinterpreted in ways that are more revealing and empowering, and such increasing historical consciousness actually serves our future consciousness, providing a more in-depth, inspiring, and informative foundation for our future personal narrative. Next, we need to articulate an ideal future personal narrative, identifying our highest hopes and aspirations for ourselves in the future.
