Those times when you get up early and you work hard, those times when you stay up late and you work hard, those times when you don't feel like working, you're too tired, you don't want to push yourself, but you do it anyway -- that is actually the dream.
— Kobe Bryant

Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
Kobe Bryant says the dream isn't the glory but the grind itself. Early mornings, late nights and pushing on when you're exhausted are what he's naming. Doing it anyway, even when you don't feel like it, is the part he calls the dream.
