Dream

//dɹiːm//

Origin: Humans spend roughly two hours dreaming each night across four to six REM cycles, though most dreams are forgotten within minutes of waking. The word itself comes from Old English "drēam," which originally meant joy or music, not sleeping visions.

Tip: In motivational writing, "dream" is one of the most overused nouns. Instead of "pursue your dreams," try naming the specific ambition: "open your own bakery" hits harder than "follow your dream."
