Perspective is everything. Even your hormones count in this one. Your hormones determine your perspective on reality. Mind just fills in the blanks the best it can. The mystery in spirituality is overcoming the perceived reality(hormones) and the machinations (programmed thought processes) of the mind. In essence, to wake up. The Bible says to, "Let the sleeper awaken". Most of us have ignored this and continue to snore like mad.
Of course it does. In those terms, you are a point of awareness, you have abilities of perception, and you operate in a dimension of perspective.
-----OK, I guess I'm compelled to answer your second question since it's the actual question you were leading to.
To me it seems as though your question is clashing with itself. The mind is where creation is first conceived. The mind is the 'drawing board' where the plans or blueprints are first drawn up, so to speak. Is this the 'fore-ordination' you are speaking of? The prototype of your creation is not fated to materialize in your reality and the mind IS a perspective/dimension. Do you see my dilemma?

Perspective points back to the one with the perspective. However a rock is God but I'm not sure if it has a perspective. ~ : )
Reality is reality...the mind is the filter, blinder, and filler through which we perceive reality (that is called perspective).
~ Eric Putkonen
Individual perspective is in the mind. You need to be more specific in your question
Mind is part of perception so they work together in a way. Perceptions play a HUGE role.

If things are foreordained, wouldn't perspective also be so?
