Step 3: Create a "Future‑Self" Storyboard

Remember, Imagination isn’t just day‑dreaming; it’s a strategic tool that transforms idle thoughts into purposeful steps. Each time you practice these tiny creative rituals, you weaken the grip of unproductive patterns and strengthen the muscle of inventive problem‑solving.
