On being realistic
Scott D. Clary writes in Facebook -- https://www.facebook.com/scottdclarypage/p
The trap of being "realistic": Realistic is just another word for average. It's what people say when they've given up. "Be realistic" means lower your standards to match mine. Every breakthrough was unrealistic until someone did it. Four-minute mile was impossible. Internet was a fad. Flying was insane. "Realistic" people don't change the world. They just criticize the people who do. Your unrealistic dreams threaten their realistic excuses.

Да, именно так.
