Dreamers

There's a theme that runs through traditional fairy stories of two brothers: one very practical and the other a dreamer who have to rescue a princess. The practical one uses logic and practical methods whereas the dreamer uses his imagination. In the end it is the dreamer who marries the princess.

To a certain extent daydreaming builds intuition and, conversely, intuitive people also tend to be daydreamers.

There are certain characteristics that are common to day dreamers:

They often start projects and don't complete them. It’s very easy for them to dream but difficult for them to do the hard work to see a project through.
They have impractical schemes. Thinking an idea through demands attention to detail and discipline.
Daydreaming men often have trouble relating to women. The real woman can never match the fantasy one and they can be hyper-critical, constantly expecting their real partner to live up to the fantasy one (who could, in reality, never exist).
Daydreaming women are often careless with finances. It's another aspect of impracticality.

Dreamers have to learn to keep their feet on the ground whilst their head is in the clouds.

On the other hand, aspiration is born of dreaming. All things that are invented had their origins in an idea. The practical person is sometimes devoid of imagination. I've mentioned previously how much of what is called education simply forces people to think in a way that is acceptable to their teacher. Education can stifle intuition in the same way as daydreaming can enhance it. However difficult it is for the dreamer to learn the hard practical lessons of life, it is easier than developing intuition in someone who does not have it naturally.

A self-made millionaire talking about his childhood said it was spent in a Northern-English town and his family had very little money. One day he saw someone driving through the town in a Rolls Royce and he decided then and there he was going to become rich enough to own one. Aspirations are formed when we are young but to be successful you need both the vision and the determination to achieve your goal.
