Fantasy is a crucial part of envisioning what you can accomplish. However, if your idealized version of work or your time out in the world is bumping up against reality, pay attention. Doing so might not feel comfortable. But it will give you an opportunity to adjust your expectations, take accountability where necessary, and shift what’s needed. This is how you weave more goodness and care into your public life. Not just by imagining it, but by using those dreams to face facts. And taking it from there.
