Hindsight is 20/20, Why not Insight?

It is easy to look back in my life or for others to look in their lives and think, "Wow - I could have seen that" or, "I should have known that."
Hindsight has much clarity to it. It's been called 20/20 vision. Interestingly, when used properly, it helps us guide our direction now.
Perhaps we can bring that same clarity to our insight. We have each been given the ability to manage all different kinds of sights. Foresight, insight, hindsight, near sight, far sight. well, you get the picture.

We have this remarkable capacity; sight. Why not develop insight to it's highest degree?

Aldous Huxley wrote a book called, "The Art of Seeing". In it he gives several exercises on how to develop your vision. In the book he does mention that vision is still an inside job, what we allow ourselves to see, we see.

So, to develop your insight, get clear on your vision of your life. Visualize your life's goals everyday.
