Quite some time ago I wrote an article about an email that I had received. It was a fairly interesting email as it was quite detailed about my life, my goals, and my ideas. The knowledge that this person had about me was so complete that it was almost eerie.

There was quite a bit of lag time in the email. It took quite a bit of time from when it was actually sent until I received it. It was a little over six months before it showed up in my inbox. In this world that is completely absurd. Emails used to take a minute or two, but now they are nearly instant.

In this email, the writer wanted to make sure that I was staying on track. I was held accountable for every idea and project of mine. If it wasn’t done, why not? If I wasn’t working on it, why not? Some of the ideas were ones that I had forgotten about and abandoned long ago, even if they were good ideas.

If you haven’t figured it out yet (or don’t remember from the last post about this!!), the email was from myself. I used a program that allows you to write emails and send them off to yourself at a future date.

Even if you leave Aridni and forget all about it within the next week and then go check out the site and forget all about it. A letter written to yourself and from yourself will certainly help you put your life into prospective.

Before you leave your computer and forget this whole article, go check out futureme.org and write your future self a letter.
