What is your opinion of unrealistic goals?

I heard over 40% of people under 40 believe they can make millions as Instagram celebrities.

The reality is, you need over a million followers to make $2000 a post.

I don’t remember everything I post but I think there was one time where I suggested one of my cousins was pushing above his weight.

I believe he can make as much as a pharmacist if he is unusually lucky but he’s been chasing the millionaire career dream for decades and I think his I. Q. Is too common to break that ceiling.

I wonder if I’m unrealistic in my goals too. There are easy ways to make money, but I have the rule that I have to earn money in a way that respects my religious values, meaning:

No books on fortune telling or psychological manipulation or unrighteous means of attracting men, no books on political hatred or societal disgust, no books on horror or gang violence, no corrupt comedic books, no copying other people’s ideas etc…

I had a friend who was a tall skinny kid. His goal in life was to be a pro football Player. We worked out together all through high school. I never really took him seriously but after high school he went to a prep school and got into some kind of training program and he put on about 40 pounds. He played football at the college level. I cold not believe how much stronger he got. He ended up playing 8 years with Kansas City.

40 pounds with natural training, no pills and syringes? If yes then that’s impressive and I would like to know their training routines.

@DryGermanGuy I am not sure what went on at the prep school but many pro athletes have gone through that program. He said that it was just grunt work with an olympic bar and dumbbells.
