We’re not in Disneyland, Toto

I read an article that breaks down the reality behind every fantasy we have about what our lives could be like–you know that fantasy that we can have it all, that we can do anything, that life is effortless.  Surprisingly, the realities are not hard-edged, but are inspiring in themselves:

1. I can do meaningful things that will have an impact on the world.
2. I earn what I work for.
3. It is always all right to ask for help. I can’t expect to be able to do everything.
4. I can achieve realistic goals that use my natural talents
5. I can move on from inevitable failures that will teach me.

Read the  The Disneyland Effect and see if you find it as uplifting as I did .
