Why a letter to the future?

      A letter to the future is an exercise in which a person writes a letter to himself or herself or to another person, addressed to the future. The letter can include objectives, goals, wishes, reflections, and other personal messages to be read at a specific date in the future. It can be used as a tool to reflect on personal progress, or as a reminder to motivate oneself to achieve specific goals.

The idea is to save the letter and open it at a future date to see how the sender’s life has evolved and compare it to what was written in the letter. It can be a way to motivate oneself, to remind oneself of important goals and to measure progress.

There is no specific type of person who needs to write a letter to the future. Anyone who wants to reflect on their life, goals and objectives, or who wants to motivate themselves to achieve them, can benefit from writing a letter to the future.
