What is a dream?

A dream

According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, a dream is:

1. A visionary creation of the imagination
2. A strongly desired goal or purpose 

I believe it is absolutely both. Think about you, what you want to do, what you want to pursue and what you want to be in, let's say, 10 years.

I know what I want to become, I know where I see myself in 10 years and I know it's going to take a lot of time to do so. I have clear in mind what I want to become, with whom I would like to spend my life and where I would like to spend it.
Don't think it's been an easy "decision". It's not even a decision, it comes naturally and it takes time.
I realized I had a dream when I started to study again, after years of doing absolutely nothing useful and fulfilling.

What gave me the initial kick has been a health problem.
I spent 1 month at the hospital and THAT helped my brain to "click" and switch to another mindset. The mindset I have now, the idea of a better future for myself and my kids, one day.

While in the hospital, I have envisioned  myself back at school. Studying and building a future for myself.
Thanks to that "short" stay, I have finally decided to go back to school and learn about something I was passionate about: Tourism and Travel.

THAT WAS THE BEST DECISION I HAVE EVER TAKEN.

It started the whole process. I am still building my dream, and I am working hard towards it. The final goal does not change, but the action steps have. It's normal. It's the natural to a goal. You would do anything possible to reach it, and if you see that what you are doing it's not working, you slightly adjust the aim. 

The important thing is to NEVER, EVER GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAMS!
