I think I agree with this partially. I feel people's dreams also develop and change as they get older/reality sets in and end up following parts of their dreams.

For instance, I love making music, but I know how making a living off music works most of the time. So I learned/got pretty decent at recording, mixing, an mastering so I could a least make a living doing what my dreams were, even if it's no my music I'm making. In reality I just love music and want to be part of the engineering framework of sounds that touch people lives.
