although mostly described on the internet as something taking massive, complex proportions, this is pretty much every moment when you choose to not focus on your actual life, and instead pick to escape to some other version of events.
also known as counterproductive daydreaming.
can you make a choice (most often a series of choices) that can change your circumstances in some way? if the answer is "definitely no, i am stuck here, for real, with no escape whatsoever, seriously", then think about working with yourself to improve some other aspect of your life instead. it will not be in vain.
an action plan that you actually plan on taking action on, but you think about a lot, will not fall under this category...unless you are a coward, and keep delaying taking action. that's maladaptive.
some consider this type of daydreaming/fantasising as manifestation, or, worse, as meditation. that is why they are, most likely, behind on their goals...or they just have unethical goals and the universe said: "denied!".

Doug's brain: it's summer. it's too hot. i'm uncomfortable. i am seeing myself engulfed in snow..making snow angels..skiing..making more snow angels (loop on last image)
some God: i'm thinking hard right now where to place this. might be maladaptive daydreaming, it's a bit of a gray area. the snow angels are a nice touch though, thanks!
