"American dream" is a lie rich people tell you so you will work for them til exaustion, you know: "because if you work hard you get there".. meanwhile they are in their big yachts, playing poker and laughing at you.. :) Do what you love... work hard in it because your work is just fun.. make time for your family and loved ones.. you may or may not do enough money from your work.. to support your family, friends and the good moments with them.. Of course.. society must support people movements towards prepare them to work in whatever field make them happy.. If everyone is in the place its supposed to be.. the world would be a better place.. If you think like everybody else, you will end up like everybody else.. so live up your own dream.. find it out.. dont follow this sort of hivemind dream.. this is something from the television/radio era.. where people were supposed to listen and obey (you know.. the elite).. Now its the internet era, a era where your interaction counts, where you can count as a individual even in million-people societies Have the courage to be a individual

  This article is full of logical holes in it.. im kind of lazy right now to argue about it.. but its trying to prove a point it dont prove, and yet.. it argues about a lof of other things that have nothing to do with their first statement.. For instance, if we really think in social inclusion, we can reform our educational systems, in a way it will matter less the individual social class, and more its talent and its own potential.. So maybe the people that would be real out of the DWYL would be the less "gifted" people and not the individual in the lower social classes.. And for people that didnt find its own way in life.. may experiment to work with the DWYL folks.. doing some work that are more manual.. they may find their own ways like that.. experimenting.. Also, when im washing the dishes for instance.. its a very good time for me to do some zen meditation.. it really clean up my head.. and i have new perspectives over things im thinking of.. What i've noted is that, by starting to do one thing that you love (and i do not come from upper class) , i started to love other things that i do not love at first.. And in my "past life", where i did not like most things i was working on.. (for several different reasons).. it starts to bitter even sweet things with time.. and i've stopped before everything became bitter.. myself included.. So no, thank you! The people that created this article can do what they dont want if they like.. because of the greater good.. you will ending doing what they tell you.. you know.. the big guys in whatever game you are on.. I believe in organic structures.. if you stop to observe nature.. things are pretty well organized.. and working very well (we are a proof of it) without anyone managing it.. everything fits well, and each individual do whatever it has to do.. there some inherent natural order in it.. we have it too.. and we can do it even better giving the amount of intelligence we have

This may be a good advice, but for a lot of people that were not so blessed with imagination, this same advice may also appear just... hollow! It may not necessarily be a mater of courage, because they don't really know what they want until a commercial tells them (and probably they won't do anything with their life if the primary needs won't push them to). For such people here's the template thinking labeled "American Dream". When there isn't anything better and more personal, it's a good direction, for both the prosaic soul and overall for the society. So yeah - work hard, have fun/kids/etc. and pay taxes! ...at least till you'll figure out something better.
