HOW WAS I THINKING?

self enlightenment exercise no. 20

Open your email program and read some of the emails you sent a long time ago.

If possible, try and find emails you sent over 5 years ago.  You may need to open your ‘Sent Email Archive Folder’ to read correspondence this far in the past.

Spend some time reading what you wrote to people, but do not get too absorbed in the nostalgia of it all.
As you read your emails, keep the following question in mind;

How was I thinking?

NOTES

lisa's Gravatar I'm still as enthusiastic as I was when I was 23. I've always seen my close relationships as a mirror or report card in my own life. I see a lot of courage and independent thinking these days and I'm so honored to be where I am today. I'm just happier on a deeper level.
