Can we see our future? If so, can we change the future? Daegon Lee, Master of Science in Foresight at the University of Houston We have control over our 'preferred future' We are probably wondering what my future will look like. If a bright future is promised for you, would you not put any effort into it? Or, if you see a dark future ahead of you, will you give up on any efforts and despair? Let's say you have a fragile body. Say you want to get out of this bad situation and have a healthy and strong body. If you make an effort to overcome this situation (such as exercising harder or eating better), you will be able to find health at least to some extent. However, if you do nothing, you will still be unhealthy. I just thought of our two different futures. A healthy future you, and an unhealthy future you.

What is Foresight? Daegon Lee , a member of Association of Professional Futurist, a graduate student in Master of Science in Foresight at the University of Houston Many people have never heard of the words foresight or futures studies, or even if they did, they don't know exactly what they mean. Webster's Dictionary defines foresight as 'an act or the power of foreseeing' or 'an act of looking forward'. In other words, foresight means work or action to see the future, and the result. So some of you may ask, 'Is foresight predicting the future?' or 'Are you a psychic?' Futurists for foresight are different from fortune tellers for prophecy. Foresight collects information from the past and present and uses it to create multiple future scenarios that are likely to occur through causality, logic, and rational creativity. Foresight differs from prediction, which uses magical powers inaccessible to ordinary people to ‘precise blow’ a single future. I m...
