"The more I learn about the world, the more I realize that my major shortcoming is my shortsightedness." This made me step back a bit because I feel the same. I believe my perspective right now is quite narrow.
When you say you'll be thinking of longer-term trends, do you mean focusing more about the roots of progress (how things came to be and appreciating them more)? Or are you also thinking about how you could gain a wider perspective (e.g. thinking in decades instead of just days)?
I'm thinking more backwards. Learning from history to gain forward perspective. It's easy for me to think "long-term" but without actual knowledge of what long-term looked like in the past, my long-term is really anything past 5 mins lolol
