“Hooray! I’ve been disillusioned!”- said nobody ever. Well, until now! Welcome to my public relations campaign for “disillusion” and “disillusionment.” It’s high time we redefine what it means to be disillusioned. Rather than focus on the disappointment of disillusionment, let’s zone in on the healthy outcomes on the other side of the let-downs. To be disillusioned is to wake up—to snap out of a mirage. From a wakeful state, we can move forward and make progress. Any disappointment we experience is a small price to pay in exchange for real-life opportunities.

“You must never confuse faith that you will prevail in the end—which you can never afford to lose—with the discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be.”
- Admiral James Stockdale

We’ve all been there. Someone we love is struggling, and we feel it deeply, as if we’re in the situation ourselves. But we’re actually less helpful when we’re that close. Being with, not in, things with those we care about lets us be more objective and caring in ways that can help the others make progress. This is even true in relationship to ourselves!
