Failure on every level

Today, I had a beautiful dream. I dreamed that I somehow got into Stanford University, but in class I couldn't keep up with them. In reality, I'm terrible at school. FML

Many of us have had dreams about feeling like an “imposter” and being found unable to do whatever it was we feared… Dreams are just dreams most of the time; though just sometimes a deeper meaning comes through - Not usually as a premonition, but much more often an expression of our fears… If you have fears of not being able to keep up with the coursework where ever you are, turn that into a motivator that makes you work harder to learn and understand the courses - Starting on the first day of each of your classes. Also remember that it’s best not to claim accomplishments beyond what you can actually do than to be found out as an imposter… A certain degree of painting yourself in the best light possible is required when looking for a job - But the worst thing you could ever do is to somehow get a job you had claimed competence in but were unable to accomplish.

I know plenty of people who sucked at school work... some wind up failing at life, but the ones who knew how to prioritize put their efforts into what they could understand. most of those people got into trades and make 60k+ a year some over 100k. being bad at one thing doesn't mean you fail at life... unless you let yourself fail at life.

Who cares, then you wake up from your dream and go on with your life

Hey, at least you're not hundreds of thousands in debt with no degree. That's where your dream was heading!
