Foresight

"among the many animals in Nature, Man is among the few given the natural skill to foresee or project into the future using our highly evolved brains."

After discussing Perspectives, let us discuss foresight- another seemingly ordinary word. But among the many animals in Nature, Man is among the few given the natural skill to foresee or project into the future using our highly evolved brains. We may call this ability as foresight. It is related to dreams plus a little help from our experiences with the causal relationships of situations, events or  phenomena in nature. If you are filled with living Hope, you can actually make that dream or carefully calculated foresight become reality.

 Hope is Living and it requires action!

Many of us feel hopeless because we never taught ourselves about true Hope. We are usually exposed or surrounded by people who lost Hope. Hope is a product of the Heart especially the kind of Heart that wants to make things better. The person who has real Hope forms his ideas in thought form. Breathes positive emotions into the idea and transforms it into Images. Images may symbolize a detailed plan(s). Plans can be transformed into action. This plan starts with dreams and foresight. It requires subsequent brainstorming for many alternative solutions, prioritization and identifying best methods to implement, resource collection, scheduling, evaluation and innovation which will be individually discussed. If these are not part of your daily activities yet, that is probably the reason why you feel you can't accomplish anything.

Do not let anyone rob you of your ability to Hope and foresee an image or abstract idea you want to concretely experience in the future.  Develop your fioresight and your other related skills to make plans and dreams come true.

Let infants, children, adolescents dream, guide them to the next first few steps to realize that dream in their lifetime. Let them be in charge of their attention controls as they grow into school age. Guide them through the next stages of Attention control which I consider as precursor skills to eventually  become competencies that will create global accomplishments.

But be reminded that accomplishments are not required to be competent. Certificates of accomplishments only mark that you have Competence. As long as you hold on to your dream and as long as you try everyday to move closer to it no matter what the pace, you are fine and well. Hope is dynamic. It is more alive than a passive wish. Hope acts to make your Dream come true.

Adults must lead people to better and better lives. Adults must learn to connect foresight or previewing abilities along with the other attention control abilities with Hope. Those other essential abilities are discussed later.
