willing to put just enough effort to actualize our dreams?, or we live in a world of fantasy where all our goals are set and achieved in our minds.

It's important you allow your growth. If you to get to the last floor of a 4 storey building, or sky scraper it's either you use the stairs or the lift, there's no jumping there, or do you skip the first steps of a ladder, and find yourself at the top of the ladder??.
