Dissonance Between Fantasy and Reality

Perhaps one major obstacle I'm facing is my severe tendency to daydream and fantasize my hopes and dreams.
This creates a wide gap between the reality I'm currently in and my expectations. The wider the gap, the greater the suffering.

So upon this realization, what I can do now is to practice stopping my daydreaming in it's tracks whenever it occurs. I need to remind myself that my dreams never correlate to reality and my subconscious actions. The only way I can find my destiny is to do the task, go with the flow and discover something from the process.
