Whether one considers the immediate future, the future of a few hours, of a few days or of one's entire lifespan, one does so abstractly. Although the actions one takes are concretely real and the end result would be concretely real, one's consideration of the future while acting in the present is abstract.

Aside: The term career planning is an attempt to plan ones future using terms that are only applicable to the past: it represents the mistake of attempting to grasp the future perceptually. The future can only be grasped abstractly.
