Dreaming or Daydreaming

Well it has been quite sometime that I wrote something. Actually there was nothing that actually affected me all this while. But then I realized that I am lagging behind on writing skills. So here I go again.

Difference between dreaming and day dreaming. Most of the leaders tell us to dream and dream big so we can achieve somthing in life. But most of us end up day dreaming. Worst still we dont even realise we are daydreaming. And by the end of the day we realise that all throught the day nothing constructive has been done.

How does one find the difference between the two. According to me dreaming is nothing but thinking. For example if I have a goal say winning a race I am thinking as to how I am going to achieve it then I m dreaming. If I m dreaming that I have already won the race and everybody is prasing me and I have become famous ............now thats day dreaming.

Dreaming is constructive. Day dreaming on the other hand - I wont say is distructive but is seldom constructive. Most of it dosnt even make sense. It is simply done to satisfy oneself or console oneself. Sometimes it gives us hope but its a waste of time once it becomes a habbit.

Dreaming makes you active becoz you are in process of making your dreams a reality. Day dreaming makes you lazy bcoz in your dreams you have already achieved what you want to achieve and hence make little efforts towards achieving them.

And how m I blabbering about daydreaming? Obviously I m daydreamer too and have spent enough time just day dreaming as if I m doing some great service to the world. For long I have felt strongly about so many issues but who will take pains to write them down. Hey I m a human too and I m trying to change. Hence this very process of blogging what I feel. Not that many people are gonna read it - but what the heck - just trying to make a difference.
