Hal Hershfield is a psychologist whose research has found that the human brain tends to view one’s “future self” in the same way it views other people – that is, the decisions you make today aren’t affecting you, they’re affecting somebody else. I couldn’t think of anything especially funny or insightful to write here, so that’s why I’ve outsourced today’s commentary to a psychology research paper.
