Future Perfect Now: 365 visionary tapas on life, love, art and everything in between
In this unique futuristic journal, artist and author Lewis Evans vividly envisions his ideal future life, interweaving philosophical reflections on art, business, creativity, human potential and the everyday wonders of human existence.
An inspiring blend of real-life wisdom, transformative insights and eloquently rendered prose that transports readers into their own powerful musings on creating a personal reality with intention, focus and feeling.
Like the everlasting present moment, each page of daily delving exists as a stand-alone freeze-frame of time, with no beginning, middle or end.
A rapturous read, this book is an uplifting, salutary companion in our uncertain and troubled times. What this book will cultivate/enhance in Ideal Why buy this book? Author’s note These are unprecedented times that few of us know how to address in a masterful, wholesome way. Our intellects can’t help us navigate such crises and intolerance, divisiveness and separation, fear and confusion. If we rely on reason and logic to make sense of things, we rarely find enlightened solutions that feed our spirit and transcend the mayhem. Future Perfect Now speaks to our higher human faculties, beyond our limited minds and towards our vast, largely untapped potential. It invites us into the quantum realm of elevated realities that are merely a thought away—a potent healing balm for the soul and a safe, intimate space where we are free to live, love, grow, expand, create and find peace. Let it transport you back to the real you, massaging your spirit, inspiring a higher vision of your ideal reality, and sharing a transformative experience that lifts you beyond your former perceived limitations. This book contains 365 discrete visionary insights that came to me unbidden and seamlessly transferred themselves to paper, without planning or forethought. Although they are part of my vision, they may also inspire yours or even become yours, generating the same kind of magic that it sparked for me. After all, everyone and everything is connected.

In this empowering guide, Evans takes readers on a personal journey, sharing his profound insights and charting ways to cultivate one’s understanding about the future to facilitate celebration of human potential beyond limiting concepts.
Evans declares that people try to look for some kind of issue in their search for meaning, thus setting themselves up for a rat race where they end up serving the dysfunctional interests of others instead of relishing the simple beauty of just being. In their endeavor to follow the accepted paths, they lose their inner shine, exhausting themselves in a seemingly everlasting mire that does nothing but weigh them down.
Through his collection of inspired journal entries spanning 365 consecutive days, Evans recommends readers envision themselves as a part of the whole in order to return to their higher faculties. Only when individual egos fade away and a true connection is formed, he says, can people be truly happy.
Readers feeling the impossibility of a better future will be uplifted and reassured by this enlightened approach.
