English term or phrase: imagine different paths between the two

From Wildcat to Datacrat

"Engineers and geoscientists and everyone have been taught BI from the start," says Lensing, the Hess CIO. Give people in any industry access to information along with tools to interpret the past, model the future and {imagine different paths between the two} , he says, and they can change the trajectory of companies.

Chinese translation:思考两者道路间的异同

Explanation:
无非就是回首过去，放眼未来，看过去是怎么做的，未来应该怎么办，过去哪些方面可资借鉴，未来应该有哪些创新。imagine说是想象，说到未来，其实就是憧憬，既有过去又有现在，则是思索、思考、比较之意。按照国内过去一些较成形的译法，此处path不妨直译，当然，也可打破原文结构，按实际要表达的意思进行重组。
