If you could go back in time or leap forward in time, which version of yourself would you want to talk to? There are valid reasons to pick either of them, I however would pick the older version of myself. There's something about experiential knowledge that can beat out all of the books and education that we think make us so smart. And what do I think that the older version of myself would say? I think she would tell me to do the things that make ME happy, not the things that make other people happy. I think she would also tell me to accept my haters with open arms, because if you have haters, that means you are doing something that is making people notice. She would also tell me to keep grinding but to have fun during the process and that laughter really is the best medicine. Older Annie would encourage me to keep doing everything I do for my kids because one day, they will turn out to be amazing adults because I never wavered or faltered from being right by their sides. I also think that the 80-year-old version of myself would tell me that she's proud of me for always choosing to love people just as they are 💗...................
The following is an excerpt from a book I just finished titled "The ONE Thing"by Gary Keller with Jay Papasan. It's a GREAT read and I highly suggest it to anyone who is looking to advance their life. Trust me, it's a good use of your time!
Great Post!!
