The American Dream 2.0 - DailyBlogTips

The American Dream 2.0 Posted: 21 Apr 2010 11:05 AM PDT This is a guest post by Stefan Knapen. If you want to guest post on this blog, check out the guidelines here. In 1931, James Truslow Adams stated in his book 'Epic of America' this sentence: It has been a dream of being able to grow to fullest development as a man and woman, unhampered by the barriers which had slowly been erected in the older civilizations, unrepressed by social orders which had developed for the benefit of classes rather than for the simple human being of any and every class. The American people followed their heart, did what they could do best and became more than they could have become in Europe. Car companies were born, regular farmers became businessmen, and a simple bookkeeper became owner of an oil company and became probably the wealthiest American ever. The possibilities were unlimited. But the American dream was a joke to many. Europeans didn't believe in it and laughed at the ones who went overseas to chase the American Dream. Not everyone managed to get the wanted results, there were many failures, but there were people who did succeed. They lived the dream, they were the dream. And now… There is a status quo again, just like there was in Europe. Big corporations don't hire normal people and big papers don't publish the opinion of the everyday citizen. A new American Dream manifests. Everybody can get rich and everybody can share their opinion, on the web. Blogs, twitter and other social media give the opportunity to share your opinion. You can share your opinion everywhere. Big blogs, as Daily Blog Tips, are the example of what is possible: Everything. You don't have to live in America to chase the American Dream 2.0, you can get rich from any place, as long as you have internet. Internet marketing and (again) blogs give people the opportunity to get rich on their own. You can live without boss, you can be your own boss. Everything is possible, quit your job, chase the American Dream 2.0 and become independent. But again, people are skeptic. 'You won't get anything from your blog, of course it doesn't work, that stuff only works for a couple of people.' It is something you have to believe in. Without believe, you probably won't even start and if you start, you probably won't write as good, fight as hard for your blog as you should. The Dream exist, just believe in it. Look at Darren Rowse, look at Leo Babauta or look at a young web entrepreneur like Glen Allsop. Everything is possible; you just have to believe it.
