We grow great by dreams
The question was once asked of a highly successful businessman, “How have you done so much in your lifetime?”
He replied, “I have dreamed. I have turned my mind loose to imagine what I wanted to do. Then I have gone to bed and thought about my dreams. In the night I dreamt about my dreams. And when I awoke in the morning, I saw the way to make my dreams real. While other people were saying, ‘You can’t do that, it is impossible,’ I was well on my way to achieving what I wanted. As Woodrow Wilson, the 28th President of the US, said, ‘We grow great by dreams.’”
“All big men are dreamers.” They see things in the soft haze of a spring day, or in the red fire on a long winter’s evening.
Some of us let these dreams die, but others nourish and protect them; nourish them through bad days until they bring them to the sunshine and light which comes always to those who sincerely hope that their dreams will come true.
So please, don’t let anyone steal your dreams, or try to tell you they are too impossible. “Sing your songs, and dream your dreams, hope your hope and pray your prayer.”

One possible version:
The passage is about a successful businessman whose dreams contributed greatly to his success. He emphasized the importance of dreams and suggested that people should have dreams and never give them up.
What is known to us is that a dream is of great importance to one’s growth and success. Once you decide what your dream is, you know where to go, and which way to take.
Now my dream is that I’ll try my best to be the study winner. Now everything I do is close to my dream. I feel life is filled with hope and is colorful, and I have enough confidence to realize my dream. Of course, the path from where you are to where you want to get is not always smooth and straight. Therefore, an optimistic, positive mind is necessary in the process of your seeking your dream.
In a word, only if you have a dream will you have the chance of realizing it.
