[Quote No.69124] Need Area: Fun > Anticipation
"[Big History - history from the beginning of time and the universe through to the present and on into the future with your life's contribution and beyond; progress; futurology; futurist:-] If all goes well, human history is just beginning. Humanity is about two hundred thousand years old. But the Earth will remain habitable for hundreds of millions more -- enough time for millions of future generations; enough to end disease, poverty and injustice forever; enough to create heights of flourishing unimaginable today. And if we could learn to reach out further into the cosmos, we could have more time yet: trillions of years, to explore billions of worlds. Such a lifespan places humanity in its earliest infancy. A vast and extraordinary adulthood awaits." - Toby Ord
Quote from his book, 'The Precipice: Existential Risk and the Future of Humanity'.

[Quote No.69162] Need Area: Fun > Anticipation
"[Big History - history from the beginning of time and the universe through to the present and on into the future with your life's contribution and beyond; progress; futurology; futurist; science and science-fiction:-]
Futures studies, futures research, futurism or futurology is the systematic, interdisciplinary and holistic study of social and technological advancement, and other environmental trends, often for the purpose of exploring how people will live and work in the future. Predictive techniques, such as forecasting, can be applied, but contemporary futures studies scholars emphasize the importance of systematically exploring alternatives. In general, it can be considered as a branch of the social sciences and an extension to the field of history. Futures studies (colloquially called 'futures' by many of the field's practitioners) seeks to understand what is likely to continue and what could plausibly change. Part of the discipline thus seeks a systematic and pattern-based understanding of past and present, and to explore the possibility of future events and trends.
...
Futurology is an interdisciplinary field that aggregates and analyzes trends, with both lay and professional methods, to compose possible futures. It includes analyzing the sources, patterns, and causes of change and stability in an attempt to develop foresight. Around the world the field is variously referred to as futures studies, futures research, strategic foresight, futuristics, futures thinking, futuring, and futurology. Futures studies and strategic foresight are the academic field's most commonly used terms in the English-speaking world.
Foresight was the original term and was first used in this sense by H.G. Wells in 1932. 'Futurology' is a term common in encyclopedias, though it is used almost exclusively by nonpractitioners today, at least in the English-speaking world. 'Futurology' is defined as the 'study of the future.' The term was coined by German professor Ossip K. Flechtheim in the mid-1940s, who proposed it as a new branch of knowledge that would include a new science of probability. This term has fallen from favor in recent decades because modern practitioners stress the importance of alternative, plausible, preferable and plural futures, rather than one monolithic future, and the limitations of prediction and probability, versus the creation of possible and preferable futures.
Three factors usually distinguish futures studies from the research conducted by other disciplines (although all of these disciplines overlap, to differing degrees). First, futures studies often examines trends to compose possible, probable, and preferable futures along with the role 'wild cards' can play on future scenarios. Second, futures studies typically attempts to gain a holistic or systemic view based on insights from a range of different disciplines, generally focusing on the STEEP categories of Social, Technological, Economic, Environmental and Political. Third, futures studies challenges and unpacks the assumptions behind dominant and contending views of the future. The future thus is not empty but fraught with hidden assumptions. For example, many people expect the collapse of the Earth's ecosystem in the near future, while others believe the current ecosystem will survive indefinitely. A foresight approach would seek to analyze and highlight the assumptions underpinning such views.
As a field, futures studies expands on the research component, by emphasizing the communication of a strategy and the actionable steps needed to implement the plan or plans leading to the preferable future. It is in this regard, that futures studies evolves from an academic exercise to a more traditional business-like practice, looking to better prepare organizations for the future.
Futures studies does not generally focus on short term predictions such as interest rates over the next business cycle, or of managers or investors with short-term time horizons. Most strategic planning, which develops goals and objectives with time horizons of one to three years, is also not considered futures. Plans and strategies with longer time horizons that specifically attempt to anticipate possible future events are definitely part of the field. Learning about medium and long-term developments may at times be observed from their early signs. As a rule, futures studies is generally concerned with changes of transformative impact, rather than those of an incremental or narrow scope.
The futures field also excludes those who make future predictions through professed supernatural means.
To complete a futures study, a domain is selected for examination. The domain is the main idea of the project, or what the outcome of the project seeks to determine. Domains can have a strategic or exploratory focus and must narrow down the scope of the research. It examines what will, and more importantly, will not be discussed in the research. Futures practitioners study trends focusing on STEEP (Social, Technological, Economic, Environments and Political) baselines. Baseline exploration examine current STEEP environments to determine normal trends, called baselines. Next, practitioners use scenarios to explore different futures outcomes. Scenarios examine how the future can be different. 1. Collapse Scenarios seek to answer: What happens if the STEEP baselines fall into ruin and no longer exist? How will that impact STEEP categories? 2. Transformation Scenarios: explore futures with the baseline of society transiting to a 'new' state. How are the STEEP categories effected if society has a whole new structure? 3. New Equilibrium: examines an entire change to the structure of the domain. What happens if the baseline changes to a 'new' baseline within the same structure of society?

Young people should know that it can be cultivated; that the mind, like the body can be moved from the shade into sunshine [by remembering that nature has left us with a negativity bias that, while useful in the prehistoric savage wild, is stronger than we need in today's society so it is completely rational to conceive fear as being in most cases False Evidence Appearing Real and therefore wise to dismiss all but the most likely dangers]." - Andrew Carnegie

"[Imagine, plan, satisfaction (in past), anticipation (in future), experience (in present), gratitude (in any and all time frames):-] ‘The Invention of Tomorrow: A Natural History of Foresight’ is out this week. The book explores our ability for mental time travel into the future: how it evolved, how it develops, how it works, and why it is so critical. In the book, we show how foresight is fundamental to what makes us tick. We see how it drives cultural evolution, develops universally in early childhood, and determines how people shape their future selves and chart the course of their lives. We see that while prediction is central to how animal brains process information, the human brain takes this to another level, simulating distant times and places. We chart what science has revealed about animal foresight, and explore how time horizons expanded in human evolution. We take stock of the cultural artifacts that enhance foresight - calendars, clocks, computers - and show how thinking ahead ushered in the modern era. It’s high time we figure out how to steer our mental time machines: our best tools for securing a future worth looking forward to." - Thomas Suddendorf, Jon Redshaw, Adam Bulley
