Do you mean “wishful thinking?” Because they mean about the same thing. You’re just hoping or wishing for something, being optimistic….but the term sort of implies that there’s not much chance of whatever your hoping for happening.

Wishing for something that may or may not ever come true. Like wishful thinking too.
