Following Your Dream Is Overrated: Why Reality Is Even Sweeter
Following your dream sounds nice. It is a piece of advice we like to offer to recent graduates, and we like to think we are following it. But is following your dream really good advice?
We have an unrealistic expectation. If we just follow our dreams, we find what we are looking for. We have to pursue our dreams no matter the cost. This is idea is so wrong because it usually leads to debt (massive student loans), unrealistic expectations, and a loss of opportunity.
That's why I like to revisit this topic. Mom, when we keep doing the same things again and again. It can feel like we aren't doing enough. We get caught in the mundane tasks of working from home and homeschooling, we start to diminish what we do.
Mom, let me tell you what you are doing is changing the world. I know when we are focused on the everyday tasks, it doesn't feel that way. But you are giving your kids the greatest gift possible, you. Giving them your time, energy, and heart will change the world.
Let’s explore the reality of following your dream and pursue the fulfilling journey of reality.
