No, I do not think that day dreams can impact your life because they are meaningless things that you do when your bored. When a person has nothing better to do during their day and they fall back and start to day dream. What the dream is might signify something important that you might need to re-think. Most day dreams in my opinion are extremley unimportant and something to do when you having nothing planned. Maybe for others day dreams are important but im my experience I have never had a significant day dream.

Daydreams can interupt your day, or maybe distract you for a little while - but I don't think they can impact your life. I day dream all the time but I'm always able to leave it behind and get back into the real world as soon as I need to. So I'm on the same page as Michael - they're something you do when you're bored, not a life-changing event.

I agree with what Michael and cat are saying, that day dreams are not that important in changing my life. It's just something to do when your bored. There are a few times where day dreaming as impacted my life in small ways. Such as day dreaming during a class but thats nothing life changing.
I agree with Cat, mostly because i am a daydreamer and they do interrupt my train of though sometimes. the way i cope is i usually end up daydreaming out of my dream after i realize that im in a class and should be paying attention. they only thing that keeps me from daydreaming is a topic that interests me.

In my opinion , no , i do not believe that daydreams can be that significant enough to have such a great impact on someones life . Day dreams to me is just a habit that everyone does to keep their mind occupied in one way or another. People can day dream when they least expect it and these dreams can be about absolutely anything . Such dreams dont usually last very long and they could deal with event that have occurred in your life or abstract occurrences which could seem similar to those dreams you get from sleeping. The split seconds you spend daydreaming should have no huge impact on someones life since its doesn't last so long.
I don't believe that daydreams have a huge impact on your life, but I do believe they can have some effect. If you day dream about something that is currently happening in your life you may remember that you need to do something so they can have a positive effect. However,I don't believe they are severe enough to have a huge impact on life as a whole. We all do it every once in a while. You may miss something someone is saying but that most likely won't have extreme consequences.

In my opinion every little tiny thing that you do or that occurs impacts your life. Every activity that goes on in our brains and every time you do it, it will increase your chance of doing it again. So, every decision, thought or action will go along a "path" and the more your brain goes through that "path" the bigger it will become and the more likely it will occur again. Daydreaming may have a small impact but it is a physical action so it is an impact. For example, your in school and you start daydreaming, so your distracted, while your daydreaming the teacher is teaching you new material which you didn't learn because you were distracted. Obviously this affected your life, because now you have to find out how to learn what you had missed.

in my opinion, no i dont think that daydreams can impact your life because they are important. they are just a way to past time when your sitting in class bored. daydreams are pointless and i dont see in any kind of way how it can impact your life other than passing time. they can though have an effect on your life as in making tough decision or such but no huge impact.

I do feel that daydreams can can impact your life. A lot of people take them seriously and think that daydreams are a sign. Daydreams can mean a lot more than you think, they can symbolize something important in your life.

I believe that daydreams can not affect your life because they are not real. They are just you envisioning something. The only things that you can really worry about in real life are things that you can personally control. I do not feel like people can control their daydreams or even choose when or when not to have them.

I think that day dreams can to an extent impact your life. You could be so drawn into the day dream you can lose track of time. Also, if it's a reoccuring dream, you could be lost to reality and maybe even see reality as part of the dream, and act in reality as you see yourself acting in the dream, affecting your life a bit in that moment. Though that's in my opinion and to the extreme, I also agree with the others that day dreaming can be insignificant to your life, something to do when your sitting in class bored or to pass the time, but I think that if you day dream way too often it can imapct your life.

daydreams are essentially pointless and i really dont think they can impact your life that drastically. they do interupt or distract you for a little while but to go as far as to say they impact your life.. i think that is a little much. it is an occurance that happens when your bored and compensating for your obviously non entertaining surroundings at the moment.

Yes, Day dreams effect my life a lot. For some reason i catch myself day dreaming in most or all of my classes. I feel like i miss out on a lot of class discussion because i cant focus and end up daydreaming. Im not really sure how i can change this but it would be nice if i could focus in class.
