Most would say that the whole point of wishing for something is to dream a little.

To hope for something that is out of reach. Unattainable even.

But consider this slightly contrarian view.

The problem with that, according to Seth Godin, is that wishing consumes a lot of energy.

And if you're spending all that energy on something over wish you have no control, the end result is usually frustration at not getting what you wished for.

Far better, says Godin, to wish for something over which you do have some control. Something that you at least have some chance of impacting the result.

That way, the wishing can take on a motivational element whereby you maybe try that little bit harder to get there.

Thanks Seth.
