Can you reflect on something in the future?

I posted this question on Twitter, I can’t remember why now…

Can you reflect on something in the future?

In response to my question Les, another H808 student kindly offered his thoughts on his blog which in turn helped me consider my thoughts.

I think that reflection can influence future action, however for me it sits better in the past and the present (In action / on action). I think you can only reflect on the future based on a past/current experiences. For example im off to Poland tomorrow, I can’t reflect on what its going to be like as I know almost nothing about the place, ive never been there. My Polish reflections will begin tomorrow the moment I pick up one of those dodgy Jet2 brochures.
