Small Lives Feel Safe.
STOP BEING “REALISTIC.” IT’S COSTING YOU YOUR LIFE.
Trying to be realistic is how people negotiate themselves into a below-average existence.
Realism doesn’t protect dreams.
It suffocates them before they ever get oxygen.
As I’ve gotten older, I understand the old adage deeply:
shoot for the stars and land on the moon.
Because aiming low doesn’t make life safer. It just makes it smaller.
The pressure of wanting something big terrifies the nervous system.
So people downsize the dream until it feels “reasonable.”
Then they call it maturity.
Then they call it wisdom.
Then one day, they call it regret.
Realism is often just fear in professional clothing.
Fear of disappointment.
Fear of being seen wanting too much.
Fear of failing publicly.
So instead of risking the dream, people don’t want at all.
But here’s the truth no one wants to admit:
Half a dream lived is infinitely better than a dream abandoned.
You don’t lose by reaching and landing short.
You lose by never reaching at all.
Below-average lives aren’t caused by lack of talent or opportunity.
They’re caused by chronic self-editing.
If your dream scares you, good.
That means it’s alive.
Don’t make it realistic.
Make yourself capable of holding it.
Average is what happens when desire is negotiated down instead of expanded into.
