Wishful Thinking
Hope is a great tool for staying optimistic and positive, but achieving your goals requires action. Some people have ten different dreams that they ponder at length while they trudge unhappily through their day job: “I wish I had a great job like my friend Mark has”, “I wish I didn’t have to work with a bunch of people with bad attitudes”, “I wish my job were more fun.” Narrow your focus down to what you want most of all, and take steps to make it happen. Doing so is more satisfying and beneficial to you than years of dreaming about things you take no steps to realize. Working toward your goals is exciting, and it infuses you with new life. When you’re working for what you care about with purpose and determination, you won’t have time to feel bad about what you don’t have.
