THank you Joesph. I think it is a safe rationalisation for us to make when we say it is unrealistic because it gives us a good solid reason not to try out. I guess the choice is between how badly we want to do something, the choice is between a wish and a passion. Maybe that is where the entire difference lies.

Thank you Mayuresh :) .. I agree, no goal is unrealistic, only our thinking makes it so.. In other words I remember another quote – whether you think you can or you think you cannot – you are right ! ..

So much power to the power of will and determination ..

We usually justify our failures with the assumption that our goal is unrealistic and not based on our lazyness or wrong strategy adopted.
