This is an incorrect understanding of Tolle's idea. YOu can read the book to find out.

Tolle doesn't say that you should never think about the future. He says that if you need to think about the future, eg plan a schedule for next week, then do so ... concentrate fully, do your thinking, plan your schedule and finishi your planning. Well, you're planning, be present in the now - PLAN, do not let your thoughts drift to other matters.
