Visions, Preparation, and Visualizing Advantage

Watching Stargate (6.21 Prophecy) just made me realize something: if one can see the future, but what is seen cannot be changed, this is not useless as is often suggested in Hollywood. If, under the conditions that what is seen is precisely what will happen, one determines not to fight the existence of the elements in the vision, but instead prepares for subsequently handling what they saw, then they are gaining valuable time for preparation for that moment after. Essentially everything that was not seen in advance becomes fair game, and you can prepare to act in the moment after the event, well before the moment of the event occurs. For example, if you saw someone with their heart stopped and a defibrillator being used, as happened in the show, you can prepare by carrying an adrenaline shot until it happens. On the flipside, if you saw your soulmate arriving at your house, you could prepare by having flowers, candy, and a ring to it on hand. 

I imagine that over time, under these conditions, one would get quite proficient at preparation, as they would have had many opportunities to prepare in advance. This would likely lead to one becoming prepared even faster, handling even situations they had not foreseen better than they might have otherwise, had they not constantly been considering how to prepare for the moment after visions. It seems possible that even the visualization of this process of responding to visions might lead to an improved ability to prepare for and respond to situations where a vision was not received in advance, ultimately without visions even being a necessary component to the cognitive improvement process, with only the ability to conceive of visions being required. This is interesting because it suggests that there is some advantage gained in watching movies and TV and the like, because it puts the viewer in the mindset of considering what we might do in these situations, as long as a fundamental logic can be derived from the scenario we are witnessing, linking this current logic to the future situation that we may eventually encounter when the preparation can be useful.
