Abstract
The paper analyses the studies of philosophers and psychologists, and also the ideas of futurologists and biologists, which allows us to conclude that not only the present affects the future, but vice versa as well. The shift of the viewpoint beyond the limits of the usual meanings contributes to a change in the understanding of the relationship of temporal modes and the strengthening of the indeterminist position regarding the ontology of the future.
