Thought Tweet #663

by Rick Baker
On Jan 30, 2013

Thought Tweet #663 When using the past to predict the future, choose only the proper pieces of your past as guides.

 

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

People love to make predictions... https://rickbaker.ca/post/2012/12/18/Thought-Tweet-632.aspx

"Rational behavior, in particular, depends upon a ceaseless flow of data from the environment. It depends upon the power of the individual to predict, with at least fair success, the outcome of his own actions. To do this, he must be able to predict how the environment will respond to his acts. Sanity, itself, thus hinges on man's ability to predict his immediate, personal future on the basis of information fed him by the environment."

Alvin Toffler, 'Future Shock', (1970)
