I continually check in with skills I want to maintain. My goal setting each year includes writing about my dream life and looking 10 years ahead. I then step back to the present and list things I have to start doing now to create what I want for the future. Just simple things like dreaming of sitting in my own library room requires me to continually add to my book collection and store them neatly. The actual room can come later.
