Stop daydreaming
Often people are told to stop daydreaming. It is thought people may daydream because they are lacking in sleep. Image Credits
I remember when I was at school if a student wasn’t paying attention and daydreaming – something thrown at them would normally bring them back to reality!! There is definitely a time for daydreaming – because it is noticeable and can be very rude if done at the wrong time – which is why people say: “stop daydreaming!”
However, it is not like people decide to daydream – often it just happens and when someone alerts you to the fact that you are daydreaming this is your first realisation.
If daydreaming is a problem for you maybe prepare yourself before you attend a meeting, or interview of consultation with another. Make sure you get some fresh air, eat something nutritional, take a walk and give yourself some mental instructions, like: it is important you stay alert. If necessary maybe you could write it subtlety somewhere to remind you constantly. For some people it is not easy to stay alert – it is challenging.
Another progression could be to mentally think about your sleeping patterns and what is going on in your world at present and what you could do to free your mind.

But why shouldn’t we day dream? I would imagine (so to speak!) that a huge proportion of the greatest human inventions and endeavours were conceived first in day dreams. They’re a very normal and important mental function in my view.
