Imagine

Read over the following questions:

• Imagine you have no money challenges. How will you live your life?
• Imagine you find a magic wand. What kind of life will you create?
• Imagine you can live the life you want, even for one day. What would it be like?
• Imagine your life 10 years from now. What does it look like? What have you achieved?

Close your eyes. Take a couple of deep breaths and clear your thoughts.

Now, using 1 of the questions listed above, imagine your future.
