We discuss "Living in the Future", the concept Mike Maples Jr., introduces, and a strategic framework for entrepreneurial success by fostering "pattern-breaking" ideas. Maples advocates for moving beyond incremental improvements to actively engage with and build for a radically different future, rather than merely predicting it. This approach emphasizes identifying inflection points (technological, societal, regulatory, or adoption-based), cultivating non-consensus insights through direct experience with emerging technologies and "lighthouse customers," and ensuring a strong Founder-Future Fit, where the founder's authentic passion aligns with the envisioned future. We also describe backcasting as a method for developing breakthrough ideas and emphasize the importance of waging "asymmetric warfare" on the present by forcing a choice rather than a comparison in the market, ultimately aiming to create a movement around a provocative point of view.
