Schedule Send Yourself

Take a minute to schedule-send an email to yourself.

It’s a great way to give yourself a pick-me-up for when you really need it. Because let’s face it, you already know when you’re going to need that pick-me-up.

I schedule-sent myself an email on my way home from our Italy tour this year, and it’ll arrive 30 days before we leave for the next tour. I’m expecting I’ll be questioning my life choices by then, and this email reminds me just how much the trip meant to me.

How about schedule-sending an email for the crazy concert week in December that you know is coming? Or the night of the final dress for the musical. Send an encouraging message, or an inspiring quote, or a picture from your summer vacation.

With schedule-send built into most email platforms now, we have the new ability to be our own hype team for our future selves. Why not take advantage of that gift?
