You run into a friend 3 years from now. When asked how you are doing, you say, “this has been the best 3 years of my life”. What happened in those 3 years?

I can see what this prompt is trying to accomplish. It’s trying to reframe how you perceive personal goals to try and motivate you toward completing them.

At least, that’s my take on it.

What could I even say to make this a reality?

I got in shape and made a consistent habit of a good diet and exercise? I got a house? I made a romantic connection? Maybe I won the fucking lottery?! Okay, sorry, that last one I got excited about but that one is a statistically impossible event because the only way to win is by playing and the cost to play versus any potential returns is astronomically out of balance in favor of the lottery organization.

Still, I don’t know how the next three years are going to play out because right now we’re in very tumultuous times here in the (not so great) United States.
