What's your 200-year plan?

I love this idea from the Indian artist Raghava KK of creating a 200-year plan for your legacy. I plan on doing it!

Watch. It's only ten minutes and quite engaging as well.

 

Here are some take-aways I thought worthwhile:

1. Put an expiry date on all your childhood problems.

2. How do you want to remember yourself? Know what to forget about yourself as well.

3. We are the first generation to outsource our memories to technology and digitally curate our lives (through the internet and social media).

4. Choose your facts and biases and create an image of your own story of dignity.

5. The primary purpose of your brain is to serve your dignity.

6. Creativity can allow you to be far more than your education tells you you are.

7. Don't see yourself as moving forward in time. Rather, see your future as moving backwards towards you. That's how your curate your future.
