Just came across this interesting service where one can send an email to him/herself in the future! There may be many sites… but one is FutureMe which gives this functionality.
If for nothing else.. this service is useful to simply check what issues that are important today (or even critical in life) stand the test of time in terms of gravity at a latter date. I have listed a few personal issues that I face today and have emailed them to myself for a view date of Jan 2, 2007… to see how many of them I can solve in this year.. as also which ones remain even relevant at that time.
