hal Hershfield: We've all had the desire to travel through time and to see what life will be like for our future selves. While we want to envision the best possible future, why do some of us fail to make decisions that will truly make that a reality, while others succeed?

— from Time

In the book

There is a tool I wish someone had handed me at thirty. We have all felt the urge to travel through time, to see what our life will become; so use it deliberately — picture yourself at eighty-five, in the rocking chair, reviewing the whole flight, and ask what that person will wish you had done with the years you are spending right now. That older self is not a stranger; he is you, and he is watching how you spend his inheritance. — Time
