Thinking about Harry, I was stuck by the fact that he doesn't make 
any plans about the future. Leave planning, he doesn't even think 
about future to know how events might turn up. He blithely goes on, 
reacting to events that happen. He never anticipates what future 
events are going to be, unlike say ,Dumbledore who always seems to 
know what might happen and be prepared for that.

I believe we'll see a much different Harry in the last two books.  I 
see him being changed by the events of OOP.  With the revelation of 
the prophesy, he has begun to envision his future and where he's 
destined to go.  I think we'll see him being much more proactive and 
not just reacting to what others do to him.  My canon for this...
At the end of OOP, Harry walks out King's Cross Station with the 
Dursleys following in his wake.  In all four previous books, he has 
followed them.  There's many other hints in the last chapter of OOP 
to show Harry as being more independent and mature. If I had my book 
with me, I could throw in some quotes.

Just a thought.
