Hi,
Every week you'll get one or two subchapters of my upcoming book straight into your mailbox.
Unlike my first book, which was more biographical (body), this one is more reflective (mind) and leans itself perfectly to be published in instalments until it is ready for publication. So every week, you'll get 10 to 15 minutes of content plus some extra titbits of information about the journey towards publication and additional titbits of inspirations that won't find their way into the book.
If you joined the newsletter after April 1st, you find the links to the episodes you might have missed here below.
Please don't hesitate to get in touch, send me your thoughts and feedforward to futurizeyou@gmail.com. I'd love to hear from you.
Meanwhile, whatever you do be good to you, be good to y'our future, always.
Tom

chapter 3: A Resilient FUTURE
At the heart of resilience is your ability to adapt. This refers to making adjustments – physical, emotional and mental - based on new circumstances and information. Adjustments can be in your behaviour, perception, beliefs or judgements. The more effective you are in adjusting and changing, the healthier and more resilient you will be.

chapter 4: AN EVOLVABLE FUTURE
We have a certain degree of control over the evolutionary process and can influence our own course. But the only way to accomplish this is by bringing into question the very way we think about consciousness and the universe; by questioning many fundamental assumptions underlying civilisation.

chapter 5: AN actionable FUTURE
When our over perfect demands upon ourselves, our idealised image of ourselves, break down under insight, the self-image of the perfect brave man, the perfect maternal woman, or the perfectly logical and rational person, collapses as we permit ourselves to discover our bits of cowardliness, envy, hostility or selfishness.

chapter 6: A Transcendent Future
Try and leave this world a little better than you found it, and when your turn comes to die, you can die happy in feeling that at any rate, you have not wasted your time but have done your best.
Baden-Powell, Farewell Message (1941)

chapter 7: The future self
A meaningful life can be extremely satisfying even in the midst of hardship, whereas a meaningless life is a terrible ordeal no matter how comfortable it is.
