I consciously choose the dog's path through life. I shall be poor; I shall be a painter...

I dream of painting and then I paint my dream.

I dream my painting and I paint my dream.

Fortunately for me, I know well enough what I want, and am basically utterly indifferent to the criticism that I work to hurriedly. In answer to that, I have done some things even more hurriedly theses last few days.
