Why You Should Never Stop Daydreaming

I was a big daydreamer in grade school. Other kids teased me for zoning out and referred to me as, “out to lunch.” Adults reprimanded me for “building castles in the sky.” One teacher told me I was an absent-minded wool-gatherer… Huh?

My daydreaming was so pervasive that while doing homework I would read entire chapters and not be able to recall any facts from what I had just read. Even after re-reading the same chapters, nothing looked familiar.
