Helping yourself too far into the future

Reading time: 1 min

It's no secret that I try to do things for my future self.

I have several writings ready for posting here. But they currently lack the context- the correct "jumping board" post to maximise its value to readers (and for readers to understand the background). I cannot use them yet.

i.e. I wrote things that will be used too far into the future, and left my present "future self" (from my past perspective) hanging.

This reminds me that we need to balance the time and effort we spend for our present/immediate-future self, and our future self later down the line.
