Machiavelli said in his book The Prince, and I'm paraphrasing, that when the archer tries to hit a target far away, he aims higher than where his target lies. Not because he wants the arrow to hit that height, but rather because he knows it will fall on the way. Thus, when people follow their dreams, they need to be more ambitious than where their goal lies.
I will follow my dreams, aim high and find a realistic way to reach my goals with that in mind. Few things are impossible in life.
