This is a post about human night vision.
Those pretty images of nebula and galaxies? That's not what you see through a telescope when you're doing visual astronomy. You see shades of gray, black and white.
Our eyes don't see color well at night.
Similarly, last night, at dusk, my partner and eye looked out into the backyard to see if there were any beasties about -- foxes, bunnies, etc. Nothing moving. Then she hit the switch for the floodlights: there was a young buck standing in the yard, not 25 feet from us, just past the edge of the deck. Completely invisible to us until we hit the floods. Amazing.

"While others wait for normal, the bold invent what’s next." - Futurist Jim Carroll
Know what you don’t know about tomorrow.
Find out what you need to know.
Know it.
Then do it.
That's your resilience playbook right there!
That's how you grow into your future.
If there’s one thing this series - and soon to be a book - has emphasized, it’s this: the future isn’t waiting for you to catch up. It’s already in motion. And in times of volatility, downturn, or disruption, the winners are those who don’t just react to change—they run toward it.
The single most important question you should ask yourself as a leader, strategist, or builder of tomorrow is simple: Where’s the growth? What's the opportunity? Where do you find your future?
And the simple fact is - the future is already here. It surrounds you. You just need to see it and act on it. At every single moment, new opportunities are unfolding around you.
Is there a future out there? Definitely yes, but a constant drumbeat of negative news can cause people and organizations to lose sight of what will happen. That's why you should focus on accelerating your insight into some of the key trends that will impact industries, organizations, and careers in the next few years.
What underlies all these trends? Despite a downturn or recession, knowledge still accelerates. The global idea machine still reverberates. Big thinkers still think of how to solve big challenges. Inventors still invent. Dreamers still dream. Innovators still innovate. Doers still do. Change agents can still affect positive change.
And most important? Optimism will always overcome pessimism!
No barrier to the future is insurmountable with the right determination!
Growth is not a given - but it is available. And it belongs to those who choose to seek it out, no matter the circumstances. You can’t wait for a perfect moment to act. You need to act in the moment you have.
When others hesitate, you move.
When others cut, you invest.
When others wait for clarity, you create it.
That’s where the growth is.
Are you ready?
Futurist Jim Carroll follows trends. Obviously.
