Future Self

It’s important to spend some time imagining your future self if you want to live a long and healthy life.

Ageist views can interfere with your ability to see yourself as an older person.

It’s better to stay in the present than to wander into past or future time.

As you age, your sense of connection to your past and future selves is  likely to change.

Half of all Americans rarely (or never) think about what their lives will be like in the far future, say, thirty years from now.

The best way to motivate yourself to save for your later years is to visit a posh, active-adult community.

You’ll prepare for your own longevity better if you write yourself a letter about how important exercise is for your whole life.

Once you’ve reached midlife, your personality isn’t going to change much

When some people envision their future self, they see a total stranger.

Older adults who experience bias against themselves because of their age say they don’t want to live a long life.

If you feel the present is fleeting and the future arrives right on its heels, you’re more likely to live for the present.
