Another thing about dreaming to win a big event is that that does not 100% depend on your performance. Even if you do your absolute best, someone else could have done a bit better. I would say a good way to put things is that you can dream to win a big event but you can aspire to perform your absolute best there.
I totally agree and in my dream to go to USDAA Nationals is not necessarily to win, but to go and do my best and see where we land. I think if we pin all of our hopes on winning it could be a huge let down if you don't get the blue and that's somewhat unrealistic.
I agree with barjor and agilityfrk that you have to enjoy the process too, otherwise why do it if you're miserable.
