A letter from Nov 16, 2024

**Dear Future Me (2032),** Hey you in the future! Here I am, your 2024 self, writing a letter full of love, hope, and your big dream. You've worked so hard, and I know by now, in 2032, you must be so proud of yourself. But I want to remind you of where it all started and why you’re doing this. --- ### **Who You Are (in 2024)** You’re a fighter. Someone who’s been through so much, yet always gets back up. You were brave enough to dream big: **16,000 pages from 1,000 books in 7 years.** - You’re smart, but also creative. - You work hard, but also learn to be kind to yourself. - You see challenges as opportunities to grow, and you keep learning. But sometimes it was hard. Sometimes you felt overwhelmed or lost your motivation. Yet, you kept going, step by step. Your EQ/IQ balance was 20/80, but you knew that by 2032, you wanted to reach 100/0. That meant not just strengthening your mind, but also your heart. --- ### **What You Did (Your Mission)** Your mission was clear: **To heal, grow, and prove that anything is possible.** - You wanted to read and log 16,000 pages. That’s an average of 572 pages per quarter, or 6 pages a day. Small, but powerful. - Your WRAPP plan helped you stay on track and appreciate each step. - You knew it wasn’t just about reading. It was about understanding, feeling, and making yourself stronger with each page. --- ### **Your Journey in Small Steps (2025-2032)** - Each quarter, you read a little more, averaging **2-3 books per quarter.** - By the end of your first year, you had 2,288 pages read: almost 8-10 books! - By the middle (2028), you had reached 8,000 pages, 50% of your goal. - In your final year (2032), you finished the last pages. Mission complete. --- ### **Why This Is Important** Dear me, you didn’t just do this to read books. You did it to grow. To prove that your perseverance, creativity, and love for learning are stronger than any challenge. You’ve become a role model for yourself and others. You’ve learned to: - **Be kind to yourself** when things don’t go as planned. - **Celebrate each small step** because they all add up to something big. - **Never give up**, even when it gets tough. --- ### **My Message to You** I hope you’re proud of yourself. Proud of how you kept dreaming, kept fighting, and kept growing. You’ve proven to yourself that you can do anything. Your balance of 100/0 shows that you’re not only smart, but full of love and strength. I’m proud of you, future me. Never forget how far you’ve come, and always believe in yourself. **With love and pride,** Your past self (2024) PS: Celebrate when you hit that 16,000-page goal, okay? Maybe with some cake! 🎉
