The Definition of Magic is Opportunity

What do you do when you are too depressed or anxious to change what is happening in your life? You see other people accomplishing things and you are stuck in the same place. Many people would like to believe that if I close my eyes and wish real hard it will come true. And in defense of these actions they call it a positive attitude.
