One of the remarkable powers you have as a human person is the capacity to anticipate and reason about the future. In this time and place in history, you have a great deal of freedom to use this power to chart your own course in life. Now, to chart a course you must have some idea of where you’d like to go! Therefore, in this self-reflection I’d like you to consider your “ideal future” at two different points in time: 2 to 5 years in the future (short-term plan), and 10 to 15 years in the future (long-term plan). Suppose you choose to write a 2-year plan. Where would you like to live and with whom in two years? What would you like to be doing as a job or career (this could include tasks not usually labelled as a job; e.g., attending school, homeschooling your children)? What sorts of things would you like to be doing for leisure, and how will you generally take care of yourself? Who will be the most important people in your life, and how do you get or keep those people in your life? Who are the ideal types of people to help you reach your goals, and how will you get or keep such people in your life? What are the specific steps you can follow to reach this ideal future? What are the general things you need to work on in order to insure you do not sell out or fall short of your ideal future? What sorts of traps might you fall into along the way? When writing about this ideal future be sure that it is realistically attainable so that, once you have it articulated, it can act as a cause (an agent of change) in your life; what Thomas Aquinas referred to as an exemplary cause. Hence, based on an honest assessment of where you are now, set up an exemplary plan that can realistically be achieved, first in the short term, and then in the long term.

You must write at least 800 words. Write in specific and general terms as needed, and you can put more or less detail in the short- or long-term plans. You can use outline form for all or part of this reflection as well. Address most of the questions above in any order, and add anything else you deem important. Lastly, while this is a personal exercise, discussing your exemplary, ideal future with a true friend may help you to articulate everything clearly.
