"有些人把他们的梦想放在一个小盒子里说:“是的,我有梦想,当然我有梦想。”然后他们把盒子收起来,偶尔拿出来看看,嗯,梦想还在那里。"

Simplified Meaning:

This quote talks about people who have dreams and goals but don't actively work on them. They acknowledge that they have dreams, but instead of making plans or taking steps to achieve them, they just think about those dreams from time to time. It's like someone who wants to learn to play the guitar. They might buy a guitar, look at it now and then, and imagine being a great musician. But if they never practice or take lessons, those dreams will stay just that—dreams, not reality. A person can apply this to their life by recognizing that dreams need action. Like if you want to write a book, instead of just thinking about it, you could start writing a little each day. Over time, those small efforts can lead to the completion of your goal. Dreams become real when you take them out of the "box" and work on them regularly. So, don't just admire your dreams; do something about them.
