“It's a good idea to jot down some of your thoughts from time to time and compare them with these realities to see if they match them. After that, you'll find yourself, like everyone else, often unconsciously swayed by thoughts that are actually completely unrealistic. This is normal. However, by recording, thinking and reflecting from time to time, you will become more and more adept at identifying unrealistic thoughts and escaping their influence. That's the difference. Many people don't know how unrealistic they really are in their lives.”
