I think the reason that people are reacting the way that they are is because unrealistic dreams have the potential to do more harm than good.

I also think there's a distinction to be made between "dream" and "fantasy." It's realistic for an actor to dream of being in a major motion picture. The idea of said actor working with a personal idol, however, is unlikely, and therefore a fantasy. It's important for a person to make a distinction between the two, because otherwise, that person might wind up unduly disappointed in his or her own accomplishments.

Yes, this.
I always want to roll my eyes at people who claim that one should stick to their dreams and that if you really want, you can accomplish anything.
Because the only thing I ever really really dreamt of was to be a super-powered goddess (Dark Phoenix-like, or more).

If I hadn't learned to differentiate that from "realistic goal" and had kept obsessing and feeling sick about it, I would have been unable to find happiness in this life.

So, to get back to this secret :
- feel bad about not being able to play with a sill active actor? Not that much of a problem if you turn this angst into motivation to get closer to an opportunity of this happening.

- feel bad about not having played in a TV show that's been finished years ago? Now that it a waste of your energy.
