About This Quote

When you argue with reality, reality always wins. Reality is a strange creature. For instance, a few days ago a group of people decided to go on a hike in a forest. They were excited and ready to have fun in the great outdoors.

But then there was just one problem: they had no idea where they were going, and there was no trail to follow. So they started arguing with reality. They tried to tell themselves that there was no way they could get lost, that there was always a trail, and that they had been here before.

This kind of argument is natural when we are seeking comfort in familiar surroundings. It's what we do when we want to feel safe and secure. The trouble is that it's a losing proposition every time.

Reality won't be swayed by your arguments. What you really need to do is accept reality for what it is and get moving anyway - that's the only way you'll find your way out of the woods.
