Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night.

Edgar Allan Poe
About This Quote

It’s true that those who dream by day are cognizant of many things that escape those who dream only by night. While it is true that what you think at night will affect the quality of your dreams, it also doesn’t mean that you can’t have productive thoughts during the day. Even the most mundane tasks can be used as a building block for success. For example, if you can take any task like washing your car or mowing the lawn and make it entertaining, your perception of time will change.

If you enjoy doing something you will still think about it even when you are not doing it. You will find yourself thinking about that task long after you have finished it.
