Everything You Just
Saw Was Created 

By Futurists…
Why think like a
Futurist?
“The person who does not
worry about the future
will shortly have
worries about
the present.”
Ancient Chinese Proverb
“Change is the law of life.
And those who only
look to the past or present
are certain to
miss the future.”
President John F. Kennedy

“Foresight and
innovation are
the only two things
that can set you
apart from your
competition today.”
Kevin Roberts, CEO of Saatchi & Saatchi
But most importantly,
futurists help you
think about your
future…
“…for that is where
you and I are going
to spend the
rest of
our lives.”
Criswell from Plan 9 From Outerspace
