Why We Fantasize Things Which Are Never Likely To Take Place.

Hey there! Have you ever had random thoughts like "What if the roof just fell over me?", or while driving, "What if I had an accident?" and taking into account what's trending nowadays, "What if I had coronavirus?" Have you ever wondered why we overthink so much? How does it affect our mental and psychological health?

First, you need to know that it is normal to fantasize about life. In fact, you probably do it more often than you realize. You are often lost thinking about having a wild hairstyle, having a good vacation, having an accident and so many other things.

Fantasizing is a natural part of the human psyche. However, when it eclipses our ability to engage in reality — or becomes a way to escape it—getting lost in our own minds can actually have some pretty serious side effects. It’s not completely unsurprising if you think about it: fantasizing is a means of giving yourself an emotional experience that you crave, albeit through illusion. When you do it often, you begin to set unrealistic expectations for what it would take for your life to give you a similar “high” feeling and you don't want to quit it. It's a feeling which gives us satisfaction and pleasure. “We might speculate that energetic, active healthy people who exhibit prosocial values are considered more likely to impact the world in positive ways,” Wiebke Bleidorn, the lead author of the report, told HuffPost. “In contrast, while being prone to fantasy is not necessarily a bad attribute in many cases, on average it may be less likely to encourage healthy behavior.”

So, can we assume that there exists something like a "Healthy Personality"

Well, yes.

What are the things which people with a "Healthy Personality" experience?

As research suggests, people with healthy personalities…

1. Worry less.

2. Are more open to experiencing life.

3. They are more comfortable with change.

4. They are more willing to feel love and warmth.

5. It can foster a connection with others.

6. Have a mindset that promotes clear thinking.

In short, we can conclude that fantasizing is actually good for us!

So, keep imagining, keep wondering!
