In America, success is a source of confusion. Americans greatly prize success. To us, we are
taught to celebrate and admire the smartest ones and the one who is the most attractive. "We often
rejoice in the success of people far removed from ourselves. People who work in another profession,
live in another community, or are endured with a talent that we do not especially want for ourselves.
We tend to forget the success of people close at hand, within our own small groups, as a threat."

The essay is saying that Americans think that the better looking people will most likely succeed
in life. The one who has the highest grades will become the next millionaire. Although this might be
some what true, it isn't true all the time.The good looking person does not always get the job they
want . They might have a bad attitude. Success is for anyone who tries hard and tries to do the best in
everything they do no matter what. The main thing you need to do if you want to succeed is to fail.
Failure is only a key to success in life. If you fail, you can learn from what you did wrong. Being
rejected from your work can be devastating but it should only help you. You can figure out what you
did wrong and what you need to do to try to fix the problem.

The student with the best grades may not always succeed in life. They might struggle
sometimes too. Although it might be easier for them in school, it may not lead them to success.
Success is earned when you set a goal and you accomplish that goal. It may not be the easiest to
accomplish but you have to struggle to achieve it. Life is hard and nothing is going to be given easily.
You should try your best and even pass your goals and achieve more. People who get the best grades
may suffer sometimes too. They might be focused on studying so much that they won't be social.
They won't go out as much and won't make any new friends. They might suffer from depression.
Working hard is the best way to succeed in life.
