我们需要改变人们以往的思维方式。唯一限制我们的,是自己的想象力。我是一个未来学家,我的工作就是想象10-15年后人们将如何体验技术。这听上去也许像科幻小说?不——其实它很务实,而且每天都在发生!首先要明确一点——未来并不是被事先预设好的。它不是时间轴已经存在的一点,只能由人们被动地去等待那一刻。我们并不是无力的,未来正在每天的一举一动中创造和改变。所以我坚信每个人都应该成为塑造未来的践行者,因为这是我们即将赖以生活的世界。整个2011年我都在周游列国,和经济学家、生物学家、科幻小说作家、未来学家、教授、政府官员和公司管理层
We need to change people's way of thinking. The only thing that limits us is our own imagination. I am a futurist and my job is to imagine how people will experience technology in 10-15 years. This may sound like science fiction? No - in fact it's very pragmatic and happening every day! The first thing to be clear about - the future is not pre-set. It is not the timeline already exists, only by people to wait passively for that moment. We are not powerless, the future is being created and changed every single day. So I firmly believe that everyone should become a practitioner shaping the future, because this is the world we are about to live in. Throughout 2011 I traveled all over the world, working with economists, biologists, science fiction writers, futurists, professors, government officials and corporate executives
