The Belgian's hat-trick in Saturday's 3-0 win over Newcastle saw the Blues capitalise on Arsenal and Manchester City dropping points to take pole position with 13 games remaining.
Jose Mourinho continues to play down the Blues' title chances, but Hazard is optimistic of success.
Hazard told Chelsea TV: "Top of the league
I go in my bed, I dream
I hope at the end of the season it will be the same.
"It's a pleasure to play for this team and to work for that."
It was another impressive performance from Hazard, who has attracted plaudits from all-comers this season and now has 14 goals, 12 of them in the Premier League.
He netted two goals in eight first-half minutes, as well as a second-half penalty, and Mourinho does not understand why the Belgian has been overlooked for individual awards this season.
"Our league is phenomenal and it is better than ever, but our league must be full of unbelievable players because this kid not one single award," Mourinho told Chelsea TV.
"The difference between (Newcastle) and Hull or Southampton or Man City, the difference was the goals he scored.
"The way he plays is exactly the same
The kid is playing fantastic."
Hazard collected the match ball, which his team-mates signed.
The 23-year-old paid tribute to them and, in particular, to Frank Lampard, who passed on penalty-taking duties to allow the forward to net his third.
Hazard, whose most recent hat-trick was in May 2012 in his last game for previous club Lille, added: "It's a good present
Without the team I'm nothing.
"I just want to say thank you
Thank you, Lamps, for the penalty, because normally it's for him.
"I just said 'if you want it, take it, I don't care'
He said 'no, no'.
"(It is) my first hat-trick in the Premier League
I hope I can do the same another day
I work for that."
Hazard is realising the potential which he demonstrated last season, his first in the Premier League.
He added: "I work every day
I feel good on the pitch
I have experience now, because last season was my first.
"I try every game to make the difference for the team
It was another good day for me."
It was another challenging day for Newcastle, who have four points from the last seven games.
The defeat was the second successive 3-0 defeat following the derby loss to Sunderland and defender Steven Taylor hopes for a response against Tottenham on Wednesday.
"We've just got to keep building," Taylor said.
"Wednesday is a massive night at St James' Park and for us hopefully we can get three points if we take the game to Tottenham and attack."
Taylor vowed that the players would remain united after the departure of Yohan Cabaye to Paris Saint-Germain and Joe Kinnear's resignation as director of football.
He said: "It's just the media and speculation and what everybody wants to write about that is causing a few things.
"They can say what they want but the players and the coaching staff are just going to stick together because we are in it together."
