what is your opinion about the two words? are they related in the same way? what do you prefer? what is the best dream that you can remember? what is the best imagination you had gone to?

Well, there are two types of dreams, those when we sleep, over which, I agree, we don't have control, and those when we are awake. I would classify the latter into two categories: imaginations and visualisations. Imagination, as I see it, occurs when you let the mind wander, without reigning it in. Visualisation is controlled imagining/seeing and feeling of things you expect to happen and want to happen. This is an essential part in any goal-setting process. Like writing them down, you have to work on them, because through your mind's work ('visualisation') you help to bring those things into existence. Nothing magical about it, it's basically a question of focusing your mind.
