\u201cWhat best distinguishes our species is an ability that scientists are just beginning to appreciate: We contemplate the future. Our singular foresight created civilization and sustains society. It usually lifts our spirits, but it\u2019s also the source of most depression and anxiety, whether we\u2019re evaluating our own lives or worrying about the nation. Other animals have springtime rituals for educating the young, but only we subject them to \u201ccommencement\u201d speeches grandly informing them that today is the first day of the rest of their lives.<\/p>\n

A more apt name for our species would be Homo prospectus, because we thrive by considering our prospects. The power of prospection is what makes us wise. Looking into the future, consciously and unconsciously, is a central function of our large brain, as psychologists and neuroscientists have discovered \u2014 rather belatedly, because for the past century most researchers have assumed that we\u2019re prisoners of the past and the present.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"O que melhor distingue a nossa esp\u00e9cie \u00e9 uma capacidade que os cientistas est\u00e3o apenas a come\u00e7ar a apreciar: N\u00f3s contemplamos o futuro. A nossa vis\u00e3o singular criou a civiliza\u00e7\u00e3o e sustenta a sociedade. Normalmente, isso eleva o nosso esp\u00edrito, mas \u00e9 tamb\u00e9m a fonte da maior parte da depress\u00e3o e da ansiedade, quer estejamos a avaliar a nossa pr\u00f3pria vida ou a preocupar-nos com a na\u00e7\u00e3o. Outros animais t\u00eam rituais primaveris para educar os mais novos, mas s\u00f3 n\u00f3s os sujeitamos a discursos de \"inicia\u00e7\u00e3o\", informando-os grandiosamente de que hoje \u00e9 o primeiro dia do resto das suas vidas.<\/p>\n

Um nome mais adequado para a nossa esp\u00e9cie seria Homo prospectus, porque prosperamos ao considerar as nossas perspectivas. O poder da prospe\u00e7\u00e3o \u00e9 o que nos torna s\u00e1bios. Olhar para o futuro, consciente e inconscientemente, \u00e9 uma fun\u00e7\u00e3o central do nosso grande c\u00e9rebro, como descobriram psic\u00f3logos e neurocientistas - um pouco tardiamente, porque durante o \u00faltimo s\u00e9culo a maioria dos investigadores assumiu que somos prisioneiros do passado e do presente\".<\/p>\n
