Edward Lindaman notes that if you don't look far enough back in memory or far enough ahead in hope, your present will be impoverished. The document then discusses six converging forces that will shape the future: an aging population, accelerating technology, globalization, declining cheap energy, sustainability challenges, and growing income inequality. It argues we must envision a bold, ambitious future and work to achieve it, rather than having our future determined by low aims. The future depends on the actions we take now to guide our progress.
