You gotta stop wearing your wishbone where your backbone ought to be. -Elizabeth Gilbert

Today’s quote from Elizabeth Gilbert reminds us that dreaming is better than wishing.  Wishing is hoping for something to happen without taking the necessary actions to bring about change.  Wishing does not involve taking a stand to make a difference in your life.  In life, you need to take an active role in your own life and your own happiness.  This quote reminds us of the difference between wishful thinking and actually going out an achieving our dreams.  As an ASVAB tutor, I know the importance of reminding my students that wishing for a good ASVAB score is not enough.  They need to take the necessary actions to make their dream become a reality.  A wish is just a wish, but a dream with a plan becomes a reality.
