FUTURLOGICS is a MOS or (M)ind (O)perating (S)ystem 

What is a MOS?

In computer science an OS is an acronym for (O)perating (S)ystem.  
An Operating System provides a base to put various apps or applications to execute.  
The Mind/Brain also needs an Operating System upon which we can function with
what we know now or what we shall know.  It is how we apply our knowledge either
upon knowledge itself or upon the things we know about.  It is theory in action.
Simply a MOS is the theme upon which we execute our methods or praxis.

praxis 
1. Practical application or exercise of a branch of learning.
2. Habitual or established practice; custom.

praxis 
1. (Social Science / Education) the practice and practical side 
of a profession or field of study, as reduced from theory
2. (Social Science / Education) a practical exercise
3. accepted practice or custom

Origin Greek: deed, action, from prassein to do]
Some say that prediction of the future is just a guess.  Taking this postulate to
it's extreme let us look at the operation of the human guess.

Can one guess like an explosion in sheer randomness.  Of course random with no 
shaping or influences, is only an imaginary event.  Yet imagination has “fluences.”
(Weibull Distribution) And there bouncing off each other, an object or an act, 
interact even if, it is against each other in the mix of things. Learning to guess
is the art of deep thinking.




There is in the mix of things these types of guesses and more:

     educated guess
     prosaic guess
     common sense guess
     biased guess
     preconditioned guess
     ignorant guess
     knowledgeable guess
     naïve guess
     expert guess
     studied evaluated guess
     lucky guess
     esp guess
     spiritural guess
     inspired guess
     denying guess
     pre-influenced guess
     random guess
     hysterical guess
     crazed guess
     “cooked” guess
     chaotic guess
     lustful guess
     hopeful guess
     blasphemous guess
     divine guess
     disparate guess
     calculated guess
     blind guess
     “dumb” guess
     gambled guess
     memory guess
     system guess
     intuitive guess
     insightful guess
     stupid guess
     human guess
     guessing games
     guessing based upon previous guess(es)
     swag (acronym)

Guesses in school are controlled and students are not rewarded or are ridiculed
for guessing in tests or when they offer ideas not always drawn from the assigned
teaching and study.  Guessing is seen to be an evidence of poor preparation.  
Never or seldom seen as ideas from intuitive and free association and insightful
or intuitive feelings, structures, or approaches.  Discipline and order prevail.
Chaos disturbs the teaching environment.


We as living beings can not guess by shear randomness .  There is always 
Weibull distribution in the human condition .  This is useful to the futurist 
as it is clues to the methods used to futur.

The purpose for futurlogics is to increase the hit success of our guessing.  
So that guessing gains a greater respect or is authoritative and impressive 
to  the skeptic with the accuracy.  It makes futuring more accurate.


Funny Farm movie excerpt: 

     Moving guy: Hey Mac, which way to Redbud? 
     Mac: How'd you know my name was Mac? 
     Moving guy: Just guessed. 
     Mac: Then why don't you guess your way to Redbud. 

Futurist guesses are influences by :

     Family 
     Linguistics
     Cultural
     Sociological
     Economics
     Educational 
     Personality
     Paradigms
     Thoughts
     Dreams
     Health
     . . .

So it is all a guessing game, this area of study is commonly and collectively 
known as futuring?  Well, it is and it isn't.  It is, because no one can predict 
the future with any precision . . . . And it isn't just a guessing game, because
there are methods and procedures that you may employ to minimize (if not 
entirely end) the chances you will be caught flat footed when the future 
arrives . . . . ~ from Bruce A. Shuman book BEYOND THE LIBRARY OF THE FUTURE 

After the futurist has enough guesses.  The next step would be to categorize 
them into such sample categories as: 

     Crazy
     Ridiculous
     Never happen, impossible.
     Never happen, possible
     May happen, possible
     Possible
     . . .
     Probable
     Highly Probable
     Likely
     Pending
     Certain
     Inevitable
     Future Reality

Then the futurist offers various scenarios based upon the above categories.  

Then the futurist ponders over the most suitable scenario(s); that is makes 
judgements.

Then the futurist “dry labs”  preparations, plans dependent upon the above 
scenario(s) to proof the scenarios doing risk assessments vs reward 
assessments.  This is the place for mind experiments and ROI analysis.

Next tactical to strategic preparation/planning begins if it is a bottom up 
style.  Or Strategic to tactical planning/preparations begins if it is top 
down style.  Or Strategic to tactical and then tactical to strategic if is 
is middle out style.



Man is spiritual or Man is a product of the evolutionary processes, Inasmuch 
as man is spiritual being ,  he is capable of considering, pondering, creating, 
meditating thoughts on the future(s),  by abstraction through abstraction.  If 
man is a product of evolution then when is his evolution finished and where is 
it going.  Futur it.

So what is the affect/effect of the continual study of the future as a total 
abstraction upon the mind of man?

This kind of study necessitates the ability and/or facility to handle or use 
abstractions or abstract thoughts.  A MOS is needed to capacitate the mind to 
handle abstraction.  Continual study of the future will build or create an MOS 
or theory upon which a praxis or methods can be used.

As in Money Creation futuring or future studies generally takes at least three 
forms:     
	a. Top down central planing, social collectively engineered and by 
assigned commitment.  
	b. Bottom up capital sovereignty, spontaneous inventive, free will 
generation of monetary value or series of predictions.
	c. Simultaneous top down / bottom up approach to the future.  May be 
called middle out approach.

PRAXIS OVERALL VIEW

Whether it is the "Lone Wolf" futurist or "fully accepted in a society" 
futurist, all are budding prophets given enough time and opportunity to learn 
the secrets of probing the future.

Futurist grow in spurts as is evident by their breakthroughs.

However, there are fundamental rules, guidelines or praxis to futuring.

Be realistic the future will be real and subject to the most rigorous 
scientific investigation as it arrives to be now.

You must take plenty of time to forecast.

Trust that there are true methods and models of research.

Respect other's talents honestly and you will get respect back from your peer 
group for their approval.

Charity towards the beginner is how the future movement grows.

Be proud enough and confident enough to present your findings for publications 
or if you are a lone wolf futurist, self-publish as this effort in itself will 
give personal growth and solidify your certainties.
