To be an idealist you cannot consider the resistance that you may encounter while implementing your dreams. Pure idealism follows the dictates of truth alone. On the other hand, without realistic thinking my dreams would stay in the world of fantasy...
Moses is teaching us is to remember G‑d as the source of our good fortune, too, not only in our hours of hardship.
