This episode is brought to you by WHOOP, ARMRA Colostrum, and Cozy Earth Many of us have a vision of what we want our future to look like but have trouble seeing a clear path to get there. What’s more, we allow the stories of our past to cloud our judgment of what’s possible. When we stop and envision our future through the lens of our accomplishments, it opens the door to what’s possible. Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru sits down with Dr. Benjamin Hardy to discuss practical steps for making your future goals a reality.

0:00.0	Your experience in the present is shaped by how you frame your past and how you frame your future.
0:05.2	And a lot of people, when they think about the future, they think, okay, that's something I can imagine.
0:08.7	When they think about the past, they think that that's something that's concrete.
0:11.5	And the truth is, is that the past is just as imagined as the future.
0:15.0	And you can get just as skillful at imagining and refining and reframing your past,
