Reverse planning (accessible version)

Use this to work backwards from an imagined perfect future to a feasible and possible present.

Step 1. Envision a perfect future, and describe this in as much detail as possible. When you have done this, move on to step 2

Step 2. Now describe what would be an ideal future in fiction (in a film, book, or piece of art for instance). When you have done this, move on to step 3

Step 3. Now describe what is actually possible (at some point either now or in the future) to achieve in terms of this perfect future you have envisaged. When you have completed this, go to step 4.

Step 4. Now describe what is possible right now to achieve in order to move towards the perfect future you described in step 1.

Once all these steps have been finished, your assignment is complete.
