The want for the unattainable?

Wishing for the unattainable is lack of self-esteem as 'amp' states. However, going for the unattainable is height of self-esteem, the striving for the difficult desirables is what brings progress in human life.... those with poor self-esteem try to be satisfied with what they have, but remain unhappy since they continue to wish for what they think they can not have. Those with high self-esteem keep aiming higher and higher and genuinely believe that nothing is impossible. Such people do suffer due to their unending ambition, but this is a positive suffering that has the capability to produce achievements.

Baba Yaga, you're actually not ******* severe. PLEASE tell me you have been kidding. "that's particularly obtrusive which you're a guy through fact the 'question' is thoroughly ludacris." The notice is "ludicrous," not "ludacris." The final time I checked, the notice did not exchange basically through fact a rap artist has a similar call. you actual CORRECTED somebody else's spelling without staring at your very own?! A hypocrite if I ever observed one. in any case, some human beings choose what they are in a position to't get. that's a significant ingredient in sexuality and charm. in line with probability that's through fact people are continuously searching for the final of each and every thing(A ultimate automobile, a ultimate meal, a ultimate mate), and you view those you may attain without war as friends, on a similar time as not inevitably not so good as your self, outdoors your hold close. that could desire to easily advise you have an interest in the project. I of course regard that as infuriating rubbish, yet that's the way human habit works, regrettably.

"we don't give up"

that's a characteristic of a human mind. to want something which is unattainable is a wonderful thing if we can handle the helplessness arising from it.

but it is not like this always. some ppl i know think its best to stay in the safe side. but if it were like this with everyone...we would have never landed on the moon...we would have never seen an "albert einstein" ...we would have never used a computer..or we would have never rode a car!

to attain the unattainable is the reason why we live in comfort today.

i would love to take the risk of thinking like that! :)

Well, what I can say is that: those of want for the unattainable is only the confusion human being dealing with the objective world, it is a wrong concept to the objective materials, since we ourselves are human beings, we have to obey the law of nature and wanting possible things surely is no help .

there might a way to stop it, it would be learn more and got taught more from practice.

In a spiritual sense, this is the consciousness' way to reach out towards the unknown and make the self aware that there is more than meets the eye.

When you stop dreaming, your missing an important part of life.

I wish I could win the lottery, dream of what I would do with the money.

You have to have a target in life thats better than you can attain,

What was that T shirt, "We're #3 we don't try at all"

Low self-esteem.

If you don't like yourself, then you will long for things you can never have to keep yourself miserable & convince yourself you're unworthy. If you don't like yourself then nothing will ever fill that void. You'll always be longing for something & won't be happy even once you get it because the void is still there.

The key to happiness is to love yourself. Then you will have all that you want & need. The law of attraction works. Think positive & you draw good things to you. Love yourself & you radiate that love outward & will attract everything you want. What's more is that when you have what you want, you still want it & can enjoy it. You don't long for more.

People who have affairs, people who long for the "forbidden", are not happy with themselves. People who fall in love with someone who is impossible to get, someone who is not interested in them at all, don't love themselves. These people have no interest in anyone who might actually like them. (It's that whole Groucho Marx-Woody Allen thing: "I wouldn't want to be part of a club that would have me as a member" so you can't love someone who loves you, you don't respect them. You long for someone who doesn't know you exist, or maybe someone who is mean to you.)

If this all sounds like hogwash to you, be careful...A lot of people go their whole lives never figuring this out. Do you long for what you can never have? Or are you happy with who you are & have everything you want & need?

In some schools of thought this is referred to as " hungry ghosts ".

Logical in the end.

When I broke up from my "bf" he would not stop calling me. Prior to that, he ignored and neglected me. Guess when I was not attainable, he wanted me even more!

Its the way you get there, not the final outcome.
