Some actual research behind it here;
Three studies examined associations between goal disengagement,
goal reengagement, and subjective well-being.In Study 1,
115 undergraduates reported on the extent to which they were
able to abandon unattainable goals and reengage their efforts in
alternative goals.Study 2 examined the importance of goal disengagement
and goal reengagement in groups of young adults
and older adults (N = 120).In Study 3, a sample of parents of
children with cancer and parents of medically healthy children
was examined (N = 45).The findings confirmed that goal disengagement
and goal reengagement can be associated with ratings
of high subjective well-being.In addition, the results
showed that goal disengagement and goal reengagement can
have interactive effects on subjective well-being.The importance
of the findings for effective self-regulation and successful
development are discussed.

I would expect your hospital psychiatrist would be using this after your doctor tells you, 'You won't recover'.
My goal of 100% recovery is not unattainable and I'm not delusional.
My other goal of completely changing everything in stroke to be 100% better might be delusional and unattainable but I'll keep trying, because someone will follow in my footsteps and eventually the stupidity of the stroke medical world will be exposed and changed for the better.
