Thats so true. If you're not delusional, you're living within the boundaries others have set for you.

She is 100% accurate. I’ve always been accused of being BLINDLY OPTIMISTIC and that’s exactly why I’ve achieved nearly everything I’ve gone after.

This is crazy!! When I was younger I was so delusional about my hopes and dreams. Over time, I let the world and people in my life speak negativity into my life and so I became a “realist.” Funny how I’ve been stuck but recently my delusional ideas are coming back and I’m not going to let anyone or anything get in the way lol

Realistic goals feel responsible because they guarantee you will never be embarrassed by the distance between where you aimed and where you landed. But the science has always known what realistic thinking quietly costs. Not failure. Something worse. A life that technically worked and never once asked anything extraordinary of the person living it.

Watching this for the second time. First time just listening over the car speakers, as soon as you said “I want a red Jeep”, I look in the rear view and see a red Jeep following me 🤣
