They say it takes a village to raise a child. It also takes a number of people to inspire and influence a writer and help them grow.
Today's Challenge
Write a letter to your future self thanking yourself for all the things you did to get you where you are. Thank yourself for those you sought help from, and those who guided you. Be creative!
This fun little exercise helps supercharge your drive and motivation in a different way- instead of motivating yourself from the present forward, your motivation comes from a set path leading backwards.
Happy Mother's Day to all Moms and maternal figures 💜

Happy mother's day to you too.
I have lots of these little tidbits flirting about, the tricky part is catching one to put down on paper, lol ;)

This is a fantastic series. Thanks, following
I'm so happy to hear that! Thank you <3
Upvoted. Yes. Agreed. Be creative. I would thank myself in a letter for eating oatmeal and for being in a relationship with Doremon, just kidding.
Hey, I'm not able to judge the relationship, however oatmeal is a good thing your doing for yourself ;)

STOPAs usual, fantastic post. I love reading your stuff.
A letter to my future self is the most intriguing piece of construction I can ever engage in.
This might turn out to be inspirational and I think I will ply my hands on it
That's an interesting angle on that exercise! I've heard of "Write a letter to your teenage (or some other age) self, telling them everything is going to be OK."
Even thinking about this makes me realize that I tend to mostly "live in the present."
