We should take life pragmatically
How many times in your life have you experienced hurt, disappointment, anger, or stress, from the difference between your imagination and reality?We're very creative creatures. And when we set out to do things, we always expect that everything will turn out exactly the way we want. Does this sound familiar?
We expect a lot in our lives and do planning for our future too. But, Do chances of those scenarios coming true?
I can't say exactly. But I guess it's somewhere close to ZERO. On top of that, unexpected events can blow up all our plans. Lately, the pandemic has affected us at large. We, on the whole, have been victimised by recession, joblessness, economic crisis and much more. But it's not the end of the world. We've been through challenging times before. And I'm not trying to bash your dreams here. But a little pragmatism can never hurt. It's not practical to have high expectations because they hardly come true, nevertheless, we can't stop dreaming of a good future too.
However, we should keep our feet on the ground quite firmly that enables us to defy every stormy wave. If our arrogance lifts our feet a gusty wind fells us easily.
