The Future Front Page

A broadsheet newspaper front page dated ten years from now, reporting the life you want in past tense. You name the masthead, set the dateline a decade out, and write the banner headline as if it already ran — with a standfirst beneath it, two story columns whose headlines are set in type but whose body lines stay blank for pen, and an also-in-the-news sidebar of three smaller wins. A fixed forecast box (clear, with occasional doubt), a tongue-in-cheek index, and a corrections notice round out the paper. Vision boards collage what you want; a front page makes you commit to what happened. Begin with the end in mind, then publish it.

Best for: Turning a ten-year vision into concrete, past-tense headlines you then have to go live up to.

Report the life you want. Past tense.

A broadsheet front page dated ten years out — your own masthead, a banner headline that already happened, two story columns with blank body lines, and an also-in-the-news sidebar of smaller wins. Vision boards collage; this one publishes.

How it works

Name your paper, date the edition a decade from now, and set the headlines as if they already ran. Write everything in past tense — the front page reports, it doesn't hope.

The story columns stay blank on purpose: print it, then write the articles in pen — how it happened, who helped, what it cost.
