Future Flywheel

Our Seven Day Tiny Experiment Helps You Get Started

Maybe you know there is something you want to change, create, become or explore—but you're not completely sure what you want to do next.

You don't need to have your future figured out. You don't need a five-year plan. And you don't need someone else to tell you what you should want.

You just need to become curious about your Future Me.

For the next seven days, the Future Flywheel will help you experiment with a different way of thinking: thinking from your future instead of only thinking from your past.

The mission of the Future Me Flywheel is to close that gap. Your mind becomes familiar with whatever you repeatedly rehearse. Most of us spend our days thinking from the past. We replay what happened, retell what went wrong, and revisit the person we have been. The Future Me Flywheel turns that around as it allows you to reveal the person you are becoming.

Now that gap between your Present Me and your Future Me starts to feel less like a leap and more like a memory.

You are deliberately giving your mind repeated exposure to the Future Me that you want it to become familiar with. The more familiar something feels, the less friction your mind creates around it. The less friction, the more clarity. And clarity is what builds your confidence to step into your future and try something new.

You do not need any special talent for this. You do not need to be a writer. You do not even need to believe that this will work. You just need seven minutes a day for seven days. Everything you need is in the this one digital app which can also be accessed on your laptop.

This one simple seven day Tiny Experiment could shift the trajectory of your life in ways that impact you forever. 

Every morning, before your work begins, spend around seven minutes thinking about and then prompting what you want in one of seven areas of your life.

Here are the five principles that makes it work

1. Write from the future, not about it.

You will not write about what you hope will happen one day. You actually step into the future and write a Future Me Prompt as the person already living it. Write in the present tense. Not “I hope my future grows” but “I am so grateful for the impact that I am having.” Your mind rehearses what you describe as real, so describe it as real.

2. Write about identity, not goals.

Goals do not create results. People do. Rather than listing outcomes, describe yourself as a person who has already become capable of creating something. How would you think. How would you make decisions. How would you respond under pressure. How would you spend your mornings. When you become that person, the results have somewhere to come from.

3. Write with emotion, not just facts.

Emotion is what tells your brain that something matters. As you write, describe what this future actually feels like in your body. The pride. The gratitude. The calm confidence. The sense of space. Let yourself feel it as you write it.

4. Repeat. Repetition is what rewires.

One day of Future Me Prompting will not change your life. This is why this Tiny Experiment is seven days long as it begins a new cadence in your life and it begins to condition a new patterns. You are teaching your mind, morning after morning, “this is who I am.” That is when your behaviour starts to align naturally with your vision.

5. After day seven, read it aloud.

Once your Future Me Prompts start to return to you via email, read them...out loud. Even if it is just once. Hearing your future in your own voice deepens the familiarity and strengthens everything you have built in the first seven days.

The Future Flywheel is a seven day Tiny Experiment that allows you to ask yourself a simple question about the seven areas of your life.
