I believe that if one always looked at the skies, one would end up with wings.

REFLECTION
Attention is not passive. What you keep looking toward slowly reorganizes you around it, until the thing you admired from a distance becomes something you are capable of. The claim is not that wishing is enough; it is that a sustained direction of gaze changes how you spend your hours, who you seek out, and what you think is possible for someone like you. People who end up doing remarkable things usually spent years looking at them first.
Name the thing you keep glancing at and then looking away from. Give it a regular hour this week, and let the looking turn into small practice.
What are you looking at often enough to become?
Free, with nothing to buy inside it.
