For some reason, we can’t cut it out and we can never forget it. Apparently,
it’s just like how clearly you can imagine it, like the example you gave about
business: you clearly see “tomorrow is this and that,” and therefore you will
do it; otherwise, you won’t.
Alexandr: Well, it’s different there. If someone says to me, “Alex, let’s make
baseballs,” and at that moment, I don’t see or feel anything — it’s as if the
electricity is cut off, just a feeling of emptiness in my head — then I answer,
“No.” But if they say, “Let’s make bed linens,” I immediately see where they
are lying in my house, I see myself giving them as gifts, people buying them,
a whole bunch of colors for this material. I’m actually using it; I’ve seen a life
with these linens. It’s as if my multiverse where this already exists already
exists. And now, I just have to enter it. I see it instantly, and of course, I say,
“That’s it, yes, let’s do the bed linens, excellent” — there is no doubt. And
yes, that’s how I always do everything, because it already exists somewhere.
Well, alright. Fine.
But if we talk about people, it was like this in childhood. I remember that
I saw people who would become — depending, again, on relative to what
or whom — let’s say, successful. And that’s exactly how it happened later,
when they were 20–25 years old; I saw that these people became someone,
something happened there. Someone participated in the Olympic Games,
someone started working globally, someone else did something else. But
I already felt it as a child; when I interacted with these children, my peers, I
immediately saw who “is” in the future and who “is not.” That’s the paradox.
It’s so strange, it’s like... of course, it might not mean that those who “aren’t”
there have no future at all. But it’s as if those people whose future is perhaps
“written” actually feel it themselves. I mean, when I tried to talk to them
about it — I’ll admit — 70% said they didn’t understand me. But 30% said
they also had a feeling that they were “someone.” This very feeling that they
are “someone” — if we are talking about time — it also comes from “there,”
and my own feeling comes from there too, from the future. It turns out that
the future influences the present and the past very strongly. And it turns
out that all my certainties about things, my preferences, and my fears...
perhaps if I experienced something in the future, it is now being projected
onto me today, so I avoid it. That’s why I never get behind the wheel of a car,
