actualize
Bring to fruition
Actualize means to make real or concrete what was previously potential, theoretical, or imagined.
The word appears often in self-help and business contexts: actualize your dreams, actualize your potential.
It can also mean to represent realistically: The film actualized the horrors of war.
A more formal alternative to realize in its "make real" sense.
