뜻
Delaying tasks until a later time.
문화적 배경
In Swedish work culture, 'skjuta på framtiden' is often a result of 'konsensussökande' (consensus seeking). If a team isn't 100% in agreement, they delay the decision. Similar usage to Sweden, but often used with a bit more 'sisu' (stoicism). Delaying is seen as a failure of character more than in Sweden. In international business contexts in Stockholm, this phrase is often used to translate 'strategic deferment'. Students use this phrase almost exclusively to talk about 'prokrastinering' (procrastination). It's a badge of honor during finals week.
Use with 'brukar'
This phrase pairs perfectly with 'brukar' (usually) to describe habits. 'Jag brukar skjuta på framtiden.'
Don't forget the 'PÅ'
Without 'på', you are shooting the future with a weapon. Always include it!
