Sharp - Our fantasies vs. real life

We idolize something or someone. Our fantasy comes with the built in presumption that we will think or feel a certain way if we get that idol or become like someone we so admire.


If I drive a Jaguar, I will feel confident and sexy.


If I became more like Johnny Depp, I will be less afraid.


I was in a Jaguar the other day and my knees still hurt.


Maybe Johnny Depp is not afraid of doing a movie, but I bet he would not do “Free Solo.”


There’s the imagined world of our fantasies and then there is real life.


What are you after?


What will get you there?
