Morphology

realized = realize (transparent) = real + ize + ed

Formed from the verb 'realize' + past participle '-ed', the meaning 'brought into reality/achieved' follows directly.

Etymology

Realized comes from the French réaliser, meaning 'to make real', and it shares the simple root real that you see in reality. So a realized dream or plan is one that has been made real, in other words it has been achieved.
