American scientists believe that many people do not know how to dream, which dooms them to failure.

They even conducted a small experiment in which they asked participants to think about something pleasant for a limited period of time.

Psychologists were somewhat surprised, as many people could not come up with anything worthwhile.

They were much better at thinking about everyday matters.

Psychologists note the importance of pleasant thoughts for a person, as they improve well-being and mood, and also increase tolerance to pain.

To learn how to dream, you need to identify topics that would be pleasant to think about. These can even be thoughts about short-term achievements.

Make time for daydreaming during your morning shower or break at work.
