The American Dream is alive and well, but it's not what it used to be. In the past, the American Dream was about owning a home, getting a good job, and raising a family. Today, the American Dream is about much more than that. It's about living a life that is fulfilling and meaningful, and making a difference in the world.

The Try is a book about how to achieve the American Dream in the 21st century. Author Sarah Lewis argues that the key to success is to "try" - to take risks, to follow your passions, and to never give up on your dreams. Lewis shares her own personal story of how she overcame adversity to achieve her dreams, and she offers practical advice on how you can do the same.

The Try is a powerful and inspiring book that will help you to achieve your dreams and live a life that is full of purpose and meaning. If you're ready to start living the American Dream, then this book is for you.

What is the American Dream?

The American Dream is the belief that anyone can achieve success in the United States if they work hard and dedicate themselves to their goals. The American Dream has been a driving force for millions of people who have come to the United States from all over the world. It is a belief that has helped people to overcome adversity and to achieve great things.

The American Dream is not a specific goal or destination. It is a journey that is unique to each individual. For some, the American Dream may be about achieving financial success. For others, it may be about making a difference in the world. No matter what your definition of the American Dream is, it is something that you can achieve if you are willing to work hard and never give up on your dreams.

How to Achieve the American Dream
