The future is important, but the idea is to create the future you want (not the one you fear) by visualization. If you want to calculate the odds of success and the risks, stay rational - use only your mind - don't get caught up in the emotions which a negative outcome would imply. For example, if you want to know what you will do in the even you fail an exam, you don't need to actually feel like failing while you are imagining the future. Just think about it, coldly and rationally, like an android that selects "the course of action that has the highest rate of success". But if you want to visualize an outcome and get involved emotionally, then at least visualize the outcome you do want, not the one you want to avoid.
