Hello Steemians!
So, there are several versions of the quote above.
The future cannot be predicted, but futures can be invented.
We cannot predict the future, but we can invent it.
The way to cope with the future is to create it.
The best way to predict the future is to invent it.
The best way to predict the future is to create it.
You cannot predict the future, but you can create it.
Whichever version of the expressions you are most comfortable with can be said to be what "steemit" developers or inventors had in mind. Thankful is what I am for having learned about "steemit" for "steemit" confirms the idea that humans, in general, are thought miners, hence are able to create thoughts.
