I also make “letters to my future self” and it’s basically me saying stuff that I appreciate in future me. For example “I’m so grateful that you worked hard for achieving ___. I feel so inspired by you that you worked so hard for this thing.” It puts you in the mindset that you are going to for sure achieve your goal and also give you the reassurance and praise you may feel like you need.

This method has been changing my life, since I first implemented it as a part of my morning routine two months ago. I can not thank you enough for sharing this simple, yet powerful idea. So many profound and potentially impactful “notes to self” that I have written over the years have been wasted, simply due to the journal-like format I've written them in. Most of them I have never repeated, never reviewed... I have never given them the chance to truly sink in... Having my seeds of wisdom, gratitude, and optimism in a deck of index cards that I can go through within minutes as I am drinking the morning tea has changed that, with great results!

This is genius. First, I was skeptic when you said about this, but when you showed how it looks, and that you have cards not only with goals, but with reminders, quotes etc., it spoke to me.

A note about your "Truth" section: This has a basis in psychology! Those parts of you that you like and are important to yourself are called domains (if you've ever seen Inside Out, it's kind of like the mind islands), and reminding yourself about those can help you recover from setbacks and criticism and protects our overall positive self-concept, but research has also showed it can help us be more accepting of strangers and work harder and be less upset when others make stereotyping judgements against us. It's really cool!

Some reflection questions that might be nice to include: - What did I fail at? - What did I learn from that? - What are you grateful for? - What do you love about yourself? - How are you in service to others? If you read through your cards in the morning it may be most useful to reflect on the day before. Another possible helpful idea for all the things you want to manifest: write somewhere a chart with two sides. On the first side you write what actions you will take to achieve your manifestations, on the second side you will write the job of the universe/God, i.e. to bring you opportunities etc. This way it will be easier to let go of your manifestations so that you're not obsessing over them. Hopefully, this is helpful! 💕💕Go get 'em Kings👑 and Queens👑!

I have no present form of this in my life other than occasionally journaling! I love this so much more. A flash-card-sized inspiration that you’ve personalized to yourself is so much more digestible than an entire journal entry. Also less opportunity for rambling. Can’t ramble within such limited space!

Started using index cards instead of notes written in random on every paper to organize at least by topic. Using for system put me in mind for the early books on organizing your house and making the habits to keep it clean. Using it for goal process is eminently satisfying and a way to cut up the time to avoid procrastination and solve boredom. Will add this to daily regimen and affirmations are good additions.

I really like your method. It’s simple, compact and easy to carry to review or adjust when needed. Makes more sense than a traditional journal. Hmmmm I may borrow your idea.

I can attest to this method! I've been writing affirmations on flashcard on and off for a few years when I get in a bad spot. It works like a charm. When I'm able to clear about what I want and how I want to feel, it comes easier to me. Going through the flashcards gets me really hyped up too because you can feel the excitement in your mind build. I love a good vision board or plan written out but going through the process of doing the flashcards forces you to focus you mind keenly on what you want. Thanks for the reminder Lefie!

I really like this idea and am greatly inspired by it. I've been toying around with the idea of a Vision Board for a while now and you're right about where and how would I have it handy for my own inspiration without having it on display for others to view and possibly be very critical of my goals and dreams. Your index card system makes so much sense. I can keep them in my bag where they are easy to grab and look at everyday but no one else will have access to them. Thank you for this idea and another great video.

With regards the water intake I find herbal tea is a nice idea, and also a large Jug that sits some where prominent in the room - cut up some lemon and a little fruit to spike it - make it look interesting and I find I drink more when I do this little ritual. As always thought provoking work - thanks Lefie! :-) PS I know you didn't show it because your not ready yet - But I bet one of those cards has written on it "Take Steves good advice and get a Cat!" :-)

For years I've done the same: I write my goals for the year at the beginning of my journal. If it's something I want to do once (like getting a tattoo) I just tick when done. If it's a habit or similar (like donating every month), when I do it I write the first letter of the month next to the goal when I do it, and only tick in December. It's simple, it only takes up one page and I have it always with me ❤️ Oh, by the end of each year I cut that sheet of paper and put it with the others from previous years. I like to see what I've managed to accomplish every now and then 😊 I like your method, too! I like that you've included questions and your values. I see the reason behind it. So simple and effective. Keep up the great work, Lefie! Hugs from Argentina 🇦🇷❤️

As a visual learner with ADHD and depression, sometimes it's really hard to motivate to work on any of my goals. (Interpersonal motivation regulation, who that?) But I feel like I will give this a shot alongside a vision board; see if the constant reminders will help. Thanks! Best thing is too that you can decorate it however you want to! Colored index cards, fancy caligraphy, stickers, etc. Or keep it minimal. Or a mix of both!

Hey, Lefie! Your pack of index cards reminded me of the Zettelkasten method. It is a way of storing knowledge and doing research using packs of index cards that are numbered hierarchically. It is like a tree of knowledge. And because of the numbering, cards can reference each other, intertwining that said tree, turning paper cards into hypertext. Isn't that fun?

The note cards is a brilliant idea. It allows for more focus. You're right that having a big board with everything spread out can be messy or overwhelming. It's like looking at a messy room you need yo clean and don't know where to start. With the cards, it's like baby steps, helping you focus on one little part of that messy room. Before you know it, the room is clean.

I recently bought some small poster board and for some reason... a deck of index cards. I have been postponing the vision board and did not know what the cards were "meant" for.. This video popped up at exactly the right time! I LOVE this method you present. I like the privacy, mobility, and mutability. I will still make my vision board for the fridge, but for short term goals, reminders, etc. More of a planner for the next month or season. Definitely going to enjoy developing the cards.

Love this idea. I have done the techno versions and they seem to drop into the background very fast because of the massive amount of techno we are immersed in. A practical down to earth method that I can sit right by my bed and review when I wake up in the morning to activate my possibilities. I also know that writing things down activates Area 39 in the brain and the brain goes about creating any list that is dropped in it. Hence the grocery list you forgot at home and yet remembered almost every item on it. Thanks for this new/old idea. It is a winner!

six times a year i go trough a document with my goals for that year. I limit myself to have 5 important goals i really focus on. 5 goals are easy to remember, so i don't need to have them written down on flashcards, but every day i check if i am still on the right track. I have done this for 5 years now, and it really helps to changes things, end develop in the right direction.

I have always wanted to do a Vision Board, but the thought of finding pictures that represent my goals is not my idea of fun, and in fact when I have done it, I usually give up. This was liberating, why does a vision board need to be a board? It doesn't, the value is on naming it, writing it and paying attention. Brilliant!
