An attitude of care for oneself and others is what creates the fertile ground for precognition to manifest, and a conscientious, ethical mindset goes along with this. A growing body of psychological research in the area of prospection (thinking about the future) is worth mentioning here. The extent to which people feel a sense of connection to their future selves appears to predict how well they make life decisions like saving for retirement, taking care of their health, and so on. Prospection includes anticipating how we will think back on our present from a future standpoint—for instance, imagining future regrets-and this kind of thinking has implications for ethical decision-making too.
