Trying not to predict the future

Humans — nearly all of us — have an obsessive desire to predict the future. The optimists rationalize why a good thing is sure to happen, while the pessimists are sure it won’t. It’s understandable why we want to do this: being able to correctly predict outcomes can be a valuable skill in a world in which wolves might lurk around any corner. But in the majority of cases, prediction isn’t a life-or-death matter anymore. The question is, then, whether it has any value in such a situation.
