Few, if any, can predict the future.

Many, if not most, think and act like they can influence the future.

What do you think?

Do you think about situations before they happen?

If you do, are they generally pleasant situations or unpleasant situations?

Either way, what's that tell you?

Either way, do you commit to taking certain actions to do what you can to bring the situation about or do what you can to ensure the situation does not happen?

Do you set goals?

If so, when you set goals do you have certain future situations imaged in your mind's eye?

Do you plan your actions?

If so, when you plan your actions do you have certain future situations imaged in your mind's eye?

Do you try to influence people?

If so, when you try to influence people do you have certain future situations imaged in your mind's eye?

If so, do you wonder what future situations those people have imaged in their minds' eyes?

If so, do you ask those people about their minds' eyes pictures?

If not, how likely is it you will bring about the future situations you imagine?
