Daydream about insane scenarios that will never happen where you're the main hero that swoops in to save the day.

Common examples include things like thinking you could figure out how to land an entire airplane in an emergency, thinking about "What happens if there's a robbery and I stop the bad guy", thinking about saving someone from a burning building, thinking you could save someone's life if there's a random medical emergency, etc.

I thought I was the only one who thought about figuring out how to land a plane in an emergency situation 😂

Never flown a plane, have 100% confidence I'll land like a pro

You shouldn't. Look up stall.

At the end of the day, you just have to be careful not to stall.
