A short YouTube video by James Laughlin (uploaded Nov 24, 2023) presenting a guided journaling exercise. Laughlin instructs viewers to take pen and paper and write a five-year retrospective described in the most incredible terms, explicitly asking them not to consider obstacles and to imagine an ideal outcome.
It's five years from now, you and I were sitting here chatting together and I say, how have the last five years been? I want you to get a pen and paper and I want you to write down the last five years have been, and I want you to describe how they've been in the most incredible terms. And I don't want you to think of any obstacles, any potential hazards. I only want you to think of in the ideal world, my last five years have been, and describe them.
