What Would You Do With a Brain If You Had One?

The Wizard of Oz showed his graciousness by handling out symbolic attributes that characters claimed as their handicapping deficiencies.

Yet, you'll end the conversation with a single question when asking someone what they would do if they were brave.

For nothing holds them back or in any way prevents action.

They merely lack ideas and purpose, so spend time idling and dawdling, and can't plausibly blame oppression, restrictions, or opposing force.

They seek an excuse and for you to consider them injured.

As an adult, perhaps you can emulate the Wizard of Oz to dispel their silly act of incapability by telling them their imaginary losses are now gone, and that you look upon them as capable people by demanding they perform rudimentary actions instead of devoting themselves to escapist fantasies.
