💡 CheatCode #86: Borrow Courage From the Future
Make today’s decision as if you already succeeded.
“A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.” – John Maxwell
We hesitate because we picture the risk of failure. But flip it — imagine you’ve already crossed the finish line. You already built the business, wrote the book, closed the deal. Now look backward: what decision did “Future You” make to get here?
Why it Works:
✅ Reframes fear as inevitability.
✅ Helps bypass short-term emotion for long-term vision.
✅ Aligns daily action with your bigger identity.
Today’s Challenge:
Think of one project you’ve been stalling on. Write a note from Future You — the version that already succeeded — telling you what step you took today. Then go do it.
Final Thought:
Courage comes when you borrow certainty from tomorrow. -1% CheatCode
