I was an epic one growing up always dreaming up what I'd do next and then working on it. One of the problems I've found with being a dreamer and visionary type is that we're very stubborn and argumentative as a result of being so ambitious and uncompromising.
I didn't exactly get along with people who doubted my vision. I invested entirely into them to the point where I couldn't afford any self-doubt and argued incessantly with anyone who would attempt to provide any healthy sense of self-doubt in me. I couldn't afford it with the black and white way I thought: all-in or fold, nothing in between! I did manage to prove a lot of nay-sayers wrong but secretly realized they're mostly right as I hid failure after failure. At the very least it was unhealthy for me to be so stubborn and uncompromising; it took its toll on my mental health and relationships with people.
The problem I've found now in my mellower years is that I've lost some of that fire that made me want to prove everyone wrong. Without it, I've lost half or more of the fuel that drove my visions and ambitions. I haven't found a way to be mellow and visionary at the same time.
Maybe that's what I need to master more than anything else. I can do the whole inner peace thing fairly well but I lose the dreamer aspect of me. Or I can do the whole mad visionary and dreamer thing as well, but then I lose the mellow side and find a warring side. I can never find the real balance.

Very much so. I'm also relentless when I get an idea in my head. I've got a bit of an obsessive personality. When I get a goal in mind I won't let go of it until it's proven to me it's not achievable. I've wasted my time in life trying and failing in life many times. But it's also why I'm on the verge of making my first million. Because there just is no quit in me.

I dream a whole lot... almost every day
but when it comes to actual life, I do keep it realistic Of course, dreams are where the child lives growing. old would not mean growing wiser if this world did not exist.

In dark of night, so far to go.
Dreams are ships that sail away,
We are only cargo."
