Dream Later

Dreaming is fun. It’s easy it’s pleasant and it’s necessary. After all, if we don’t dream about things how do we ever have something to aim for. There is a double edged sword there. To do the easy work of dreaming about it instead of the hard work of achieving it is a much too easy trap to fall into. So have your dream, but then work to make it happen, otherwise you haven’t benefited the world or yourself.

Dreaming is the mental equivalent of getting drunk…Dreaming ends up increasing depression later on. Fantasizing gives us the reward before we have accomplished the task and saps the energy we need to realize it. More dreams now mean less achievement later. -Eric Barker
