Invent the Future by Cindy Gallop

A man should learn to detect and watch that gleam of light which flashes across his mind from within, more than the lustre of the firmament of bards and sages. Yet he dismisses without notice his thought, because it is his. – Ralph Waldo Emerson

My favorite quote of all time is Alan Kay: ‘In order to predict the future, you have to invent it.’ I am all about inventing the future. Decide what you want the future to be and make it happen. Because you can. Write about your future now.

I want my future to be filled with opportunity. And I can't wait for this happen, I have to make it happen. It is all about giving myself choices to make. Every day I get the chance to make these opportunities. After making a major life changes (like a move to a foreign world) you realise that you can have the future you deserve!

My future includes making a new career for myself. I hope that this opens up all the opportunities I want. I want to use these opportunities to get into areas that I am passionate about. Areas that I am not an expert in, but hope to help make a difference. Of course that is a sign of getting old, wanting to make a difference in the world. But alas, that is where I am in the road of life! I hope that my future is part of a bigger future where tolerance is master, where all children have an equal opportunity for a positive life, and Americans worry less about Sarah Palin running for president and more about educating the future generations on what America was founded on.

I'm excited!
