Dear, Me. Love, Me.

A Letter from 2025.

My favorite end of year exercise is writing myself a letter about the coming year. I write it as if what I wanted has come to pass. For me, this is a quick way to understand what I want to experience in 2025.

(Don’t forget to include a few WIGs - Wildly Improbable Goals.)

WIGS are things that you’d love to see come to pass, even if it’s not likely. They help you stretch your imagination and dream a little bigger.You can start your letter with these prompts, or you can use your own ideas.
