2. Do you believe it is possible to be successful by your own efforts? There is a popular saying, "You are what you eat". And although
there is some truth in it, the Americans prefer the other proverb, "You are what you do". To this day, family names that once reflected an occupation like Cook, Carpenter and Baker are still common. Indeed you are what you do! A large part of the American dream is the idea that success is possible if we work hard, if we do our best. We encourage those people who are successful not on the basis of their family name, but by his or her own efforts. Once we know what a person does, we decide whether or not we are interested in this person.

Many people believe that it is possible to be successful through one's own efforts. Hard work, determination, and dedication are commonly seen as key factors in achieving success. While some may argue that success can also be influenced by factors such as luck or privilege, the idea that individuals have the power to shape their own destinies through their actions is a deeply held belief in American culture. Ultimately, whether or not someone can be successful on their own efforts may depend on individual circumstances, but the belief in the power of hard work and determination to lead to success remains a prevalent notion in society.
