Develop Future Focus

As always: Todays post from a book I have called Better Than Chocolate - 50 Proven ways to feel Happier (purchase it here), by Siimon Reynolds.

Most people have no real vision for their future.  As a result, they often get caught up in day-to-day troubles.  Having a future focus not only makes life more exciting, it helps make any short-term problems more bearable.

To experience a fundamentally happier life, decide where you would like to be in 10 years and work toward it daily.  See it clearly, believe in it.  Take action to make it a reality.  Take out a pen and some paper.  Imagine your idea life in a decade.  Where would you live?  How would you work?  What would you have achieved?  It's almost impossible to feel depressed if you have a strong future focus that you work toward with hope and consistency every day.
