You can tell a man with a dream from one who has stop dreaming by the way he carry on about life.
Truth is, without dreams life can become drecky, depression and hopelessness sets in. When a person does not aspire for anything in life (s)he has indirectly settled for nothing and life will give back what you gave to it.
Your dream keeps you in your toes, it's what keeps you awake in the night, it's what makes you excited to wake up in the morning and get going for the day's activity.
The day you stop dreaming is the day you stop living but merely existing, when a person is just existing negative energies will be emitted by such a person.
Yes!!! I know there are many dream killers, but your job is to keep that dream alive. Situations, economy, humans, unforeseen circumstances will attempt to kill you dream but it's no one's duty but yours to keep your dream alive.
Never stop dreaming!!! Trust me it ain't easy because if it was, so many people would have achieved their dreams.
You have to come to terms that there are days you'll feel like throwing in the towel but DON'T YOU DARE!!! Keep your eyes on the dream. There are days when everything that can't go wrong will go wrong, when everything seems to go haywire including your mind just tell yourself you are gonna get through it (though it's not gonna be easy). This phase will pass too. Remember gold in its raw state is not much desirable compared to when it's been purified. It has to go through the purification process so its brilliance would be seen.
So whatever life throws at you, stand your ground and fight back knowing that your dream needs to be protected from any form of dream killer
