Dreams and work are connected because your dreams are what you work towards. With out a dream we would not know what we are trying to accomplish. If you work hard, apply yourself correctly, and are able to do something competently then you should be able to work toward a dream. Also there is no point in dreaming if your not going to work toward what you’re dreaming about. If you have an idea in your head but are not going to do anything with it then you are just being lazy. Why bother to think about something if your not going to try to accomplish it? Work doesn’t have to be something that you don’t enjoy. Why would you bother to spend the majority of your life working at something that you despise doing every day? That doesn’t make any sense. You should have good dreams because then you will look forward to the next day trying to get it done. You will want to do it more and will try harder and harder to reach your dreams. Being successful means being happy with what you have accomplished. If you have done something to the best that you can do it then you were successful. If you want to be successful in achieving your dreams then you have to not only work towards it you have to be successful in getting it. You should look forward to working toward your dreams and once you have achieved you dream then you should be happy and try harder to get the next one.

If you think about it, working, playing, and dreaming all coincide with one another. When dreaming, you set a goal for your future. You think of something that you want in your life that will sustain your happiness and well-being. As you find that particular dream of yours, you begin to strive for it. In other words, you embark on the adventure of completing what you want a great deal. You work hard to receive pay or recognition in order to pursue your goal. When you have worked a durable amount of time, it is now time for play. You get to enjoy your goal now that the labor has ended, and your freedom to live happy begins. In addition, under the right circumstances, work and play can be closely related. For instance, I consider school both of the two. I go to school to work hard, so that some day I will be able to graduate and begin college, where I will hopefully be capable of entering the medical field. On the other hand, I also come to school to socialize with my friends, and be apart of a few school athletic teams. This, I would consider to be play. I enjoy doing these things, but I also have to put some effort into it too. I had a dream to receive my varsity letter during my high school years. With hard work, and fun times, I was able to get it this year. That would be an example of the close relations between all three of these things.

Work, play, and dreaming are all connected, if you think about it. First, you have to figure out what your dream is. A dream is a goal that you want to try and achieve. Once you figure that out you work and play to achieve that dream. Now work, when I think about it, is a way of making money and being able to pay the bills, and buy things I want and need. If you like the work you do then you can consider it play. I like my job I consider it both work and play. I make money, I have fun, and at the same time I’m working to make money. Another way of thinking about it is if you plan on going to college and getting a degree in something, you have to work. You cant play around, you have to get serious and pay attention. Therefore you can reach you dream, which is the same thing as your goal.

In my personal opinion, work and dreams are connected in so many ways. These two things are what all people do in their lives. They dream and work. Dreams connect with work by how a person will dream to be something or do something with their lives and will work as hard as they can to succeed in receiving his or her dream. Next, work and dreams can both be thought over thoroughly by someone or just come natural and can be finished thoughts in seconds. For example, depending on the person, it may take someone a very long time to stick to a dream or to decide how or what he or she wants to work on. Dreams and work also relate in the fact that an individual’s dream may be that they want to work at a specific occupation, making his or her dream, work and his or her work, a dream. I feel that having a specific dream in life is very important because having a dream gives a person something to look forward to in his or her life and helps them become who they want to be. For instance, I have a dream to be a singer or have some occupation that is related to music. I do not just want to sing, but I want to be more creative and help people find their own happiness through the music I make. I look forward to studying and working more to become closer and closer to my ultimate dream.

Work, play and dreams are all connected in a way. In my opinion the reasons why they’re connected is because people dream which that leads to their work. People dream to accomplish something big that they have their mind set on. They will strive and work hard for it. With work and dreams it may take awhile but with time and hard effort people will achieve it. After you achieve it, its time to enjoy you goal and play! How I see it, is when I’m at work, I get everything done first so I can have fun after and play around and goof off. That’s also how it is for school; you go to school to get an education for about thirteen years. You do this to achieve the goal of graduating and once you do that you can go play and have fun with the rest of you’re life. Even thou things will get harder and you get more goals and dreams, which means more work. But once you get over the hard work of perusing all your goals your only left with that one thing and that is play or relax as I see it.

Work and play are two completely different words. Depending on how well you like your job, you can consider it either work or play. If you just do work, you’re not having fun and you don’t want to be there. Work is not fun. Play, on the other hand, IS fun. If you love your job and you look forward to it everyday, then you can call it play. People measure success in many different ways. Some look and see how many figures you have in your bank account and decide if it’s successful based upon that. Others, like me, look at whether or not they’re having fun, or playing, and say if they’re successful. If they’re not having fun, then I say they’re not successful and they’re just going to work to earn money, not enjoy what they love to do.

The connection between a dream and work can be varied from person to person. One persons dream could be to become a pro hockey player and play for the Red Wings. Even, though they have a totally different job as an Firemen. The point is, a dream is only a dream when you set the bar to high, a dream begins to come to life if it’s a reachable one. Also, a wealth is a common dream for most if not all people but, whether or not the wealth is in haveing alot of money or something more wholesome is upper to the person. True wealth isn’t based on money and materials, it’s based off of morals. Morals are how you feel about living your life,there standards you want to constantly conquer and keep them growing to become a truly wealthy person. Also, don’t forget you can have all the money in the world but, you can’t take it with you to heaven.

The major connection between work, play, and dreams is the state of the mind which perceives them. To me fixing a house is fun I get to lift boards nail them up and do all kinds of stuff to get whatever needs fixing fixed. However many other people think that fixing a house is work and therefore avoid doing it at all. The difference between me and them is how we perceive work and play. I enjoy lifting things and fixing things other people enjoy doing anything other than the lifting and fixing. A dream meanwhile is less tangible and harder to explain simply. A dream is the subconscious mind telling the mind what it should want. Therefore our dreams are just as affected by mind set as our perception of work and play. “Work and play are different ways of describing the same thing under different circumstances”. (Twain)
The only difference between work play and a dream is the fact that a dream is not as achievable as the other two. A dream can take as long as forever to be accomplished and even with constant effort and relentless attempts you might never successfully obtain what you dream for. Play and work are much easier to obtain though play can be a tough one due to the fact that everyone is brainwashed to think that what could be considered fun is now considered work. Thanks to this work is easily the most abundant of these three “Illusions”, for that is what they are. Illusions as misleading and fake as the idea of the American dream itself. That is what makes these three words link together.

If you asked me I would say that work, play and dreams are all connected in a way. First, you have to work. Whether it is school, a full-time job, part-time or college, you work. And if you work hard enough, it will all eventually pay off. People will spend mostly all of their life working. Next, there is play. Like I have said, if you work hard enough and get everything done that you are supposed to you can have time for yourself. Like me, I go to school, I go to play baseball, then when I get home I use the rest of my time skateboarding. Skateboarding is my play, it’s basically a get-away from everything else in the world, it is my stress reliever. Finally, there are dreams. Doing all they things you do in a day gets your mind racing. You can think of so many things you would wish you could do in your lifetime. Now, some people work hard enough to be able to achieve their dreams. Some people don’t. if you have the dream of becoming a professional athlete then you have to work your way up to it. If you get to that point then you have ultimately completed life. Doing something you love and dream about because you worked hard for it is an awesome feeling. If you like it a lot, like being a pro athlete, then that is play. That’s not a job anymore. It is doing something you love, and dreamt about as a kid. That is why I think work, play and dreams are all connected.

I think that work, play, and dreams are connected. When you are little and you want to either become a person who plays football or any other sport. Or a person who behind a desk. You always dream and say that you will have that job that you always wanted. You try and reach your goal. But it also takes a lot of work for you to become somebody famous or something.

Work and play are two different things. For one, work is something most people do because they have to in order to make a living. If people did not have to work to make a living people would not do it. Play is something work allows you to do. Work gives you the money to be able to play for example vacation, to play a sport, to watch television, to go out to a restaurant . All of those things take money which work gives you.

Dreams are connected to both work and play. If you work with out a dream, you live with out a dream. You still may be successful, but not as much as if you wanted it. Play is related to dreams because once you have completed your dream you can relax(play).

Work and play are two completely different things…depending on how you look at it. Work is something that is necessary to keep living whether it’s being a full time student a pro hockey player; though play is something you do in your free time like video games, cheerleading or playing another sport. However, if you enjoy your job like a pro hockey player would then you may consider it to be play and work at the same time because you are getting paid to play so in theory…you’re working to play. A dream is connected to both work and play. The pro hockey player may have dreamed of going pro and working as a pro hockey player…so therefore he dreamed of what he wanted and what he wanted to get out of work. Many people dream of becoming rich and some people do get lucky but for the rest of us…it’s into the work force we go. However, a dream is never obtained like work and play are, you can never see or feel the dream, its only in your mind…which perceives all three…work, play and dreams.

The main connection between work and play is as long as you look at work as play then you can be successful. Many people look at work and think negatively about. Either they don’t want to go or just make up an excuse so they don’t have to go, but they always dread it. If you look at work as an experience to succeed you will be successful in your career. Even though most people to not like their job, if they look at the positives of it they can also be successful. When you see a sad person you don’t think they are very successful, do you? But when you see a happily married person with kids and a nice house and car you think to yourself, they seem like a very successful person. To me you are successful if you are happy with your job and you are making enough money to pay for your needs and some of your wants. But what success really means to me is having the job, family, house and car you have always dreamed of.

I believe that being successful means getting a lot of money. This doesn’t mean that you get your dream job. its just means that you get paid a lot of money. Your dream is what you want or what you dream of doing or having. If you are doing what you dreamed of, then you shouldn’t be calling your job, work. I don’t think that anyone should be working. I believe that everyone should be playing. If you do what you love to do and get paid for it, then you wouldn’t be calling that working. But to gat to your dream you have to work. Work and dreams are related, but their are still different. Successful, dreams, and work, are all related, but they are all different in their own way. Being successful means making money. Work means you get paid for what you do. Having your dream means to get paid for what you love doing. If I had the chance to work and get a lot of money. Or get my dream job, but get paid less then working. I would choose to get my dream job. Working would mean that I have to do something that I don’t want to do, and getting my dream would mean that I get paid for doing something that I love. Even though I would get paid less than working. Being successful can work both ways. You can get your dream job and still be successful, but you could also be working and be successful.

For me work can be fun only if you like it and want to good at what your doing. I seem to do much better when I like the subject or job that Im doing at that time. I did really did good in history when I get motivated, exsited to further my understanding of the past. When im playing I get very competitive and I want to win regardless of what im doing. In sports I have to dream of one day being the very best other wise I will just be anuther person playing that sport but with no meaning at all, I cant do something with out meaning other wise I just look at it as a waist of my life that I will never get back. I combined working hard and playing hard, to me whats the point of doing some thing half way insted of following through on things at your very best. That ishow it is for me in wrestling I give it my all and when the match comes down to the wire it takes heart. When I dearm of being the best, even if Im not the best, i will go much further and I would be much satisfied.

Work and play are two total different things, work is not always fun and while working your working for something. Play your not planning on working hard or working for money. Work and play are both great things to do but you have to know how to equal them out, if you play to much you wont get the true concept of working, but if you work to much you wont know how to enjoy your self, but if you work a little more than you play it’s ok! Me, I mow lawns in the summer then shovel driveways in the winter, I complain to my dad all the time about doing work but in the long run I know it will help me out. I still have a lot of time to hangout with my friends but if I didn’t work I would just sit around the house all day and do nothing, with no money! I would recommend work for everyone, you will learn great work ethics and will know how to grow up in life, I would much rather play around all day but I work because it will make be a better person, it also puts a little cash in your pockets!

Jason Tester…

In order to say what I think what work play and dreams are let’s define the three terms. Work is defined as an operative or productive activity. Play is defined as to amuse oneself. Lastly dreams would be defined as an aspiration. These words to me mean the same thing as their definition except some small things. To me work means to do something that you have to do to support you self and or family. Play to me means doing something you love. And dreams are what you have depicting what you see yourself becoming or doing in the future when you have your perfect life. The connection between these three is you can call work play if you like it you dream of what your dream job is and you play to dream. The connection is very thin because the dream doesn’t happen all that much because ninety percent of the people that will read this will do nothing but work until they retire and then it is too late to be able to dream or play (Mr. Kreinbring). In order to dream you have to be able to dream because once you start working then you can never fulfill that dream unless you a. have low expectations or b. got extremely lucky with your work and received vast sums or money. And those are the connections that I see between work play and dreams.

Your dreams guide you to how hard you will work towards something. Working towards your dreams means that you won’t stop at anything to accomplish a goal or a dream. You can dream to become president, but it’s how hard you will work to try to become it. There are two types of people; people who dream, and people who fulfill them. To work towards something is the main step of a dream. A dream cannot be accomplished without work. Working towards your dream will put you in the category of, people who fulfill them. Work and Dreams connects like peanut butter and jelly, without one of another it wouldn’t be right. The connection between the two is strongly attracted, you work to try to accomplish or get close to a dream. If you wanted to become an athlete, or a businessman, you would have to work towards it to become it. Dreams and Work are like goals, you set goals to try to better yourself. To become successful, you will have to work and try harder
to achieve success. We set dreams so we can work, which will lead to success. Success is to do what you want, and to a achieve your dream . Dreams can lead to your success, and can be a big part of career. Success is apart of everyone’s dream, and work is the labor you put forth. For me when I dreamed about drawing, I put forth the effort to try to do it, and I did, and now I’m a great artist.

People don’t know what they what to do in life until they have a goals and theses goals could start from something as simple as the TV while others come from dreams. Dreams are nothing but enhanced goals that people want to achieve to live a happy life from their point of view. Everyone has their own view of being successful it all depends on how that person was taught or how they learned what being successful is. Like Linda said in the book the mind is important so if someone isn’t taking care of their own mind (or body) how can they even hope to accomplish their hopes and dreams? Liking the job that you do can help be considered as play because of the fact that you enjoy what you’re doing. Disliking a task or job will result in unhappiness and frustration. Your goals in life won’t be met, thus your dreams will never become a reality. Sadly there are these types of people in the world who have no clue what they want so they work yet they get no enjoyment and they never accomplish any possible chance of a fulfilled dream. I personally think that wasting away life on a job that you hate is worthless no matter the situation and that it’s a persons own fault if they dislike that job because only you can live your life.

Work, dreams, and success; things everyone does and most people want. They are intertwined by the thin thread of imagination, but separated by reality. No person works unless they think they will accomplish something, and success is measured by the beholder. Without dreaming of success a person does not know what they work for, and will not continue to work. An example is in Death of a Salesman, Biff does not know what he wants and so wanders from job to job seeking purpose, but because he doesn’t have a dream he never finds that purpose, and without purpose never finds the success he wanted.

Success cannot be accomplished without working towards dreams. If success is defined as accomplishing your dreams, and work is defined as trying to achieve success, then work is logically not only vying for success but trying at their dream. This whole relationship then forms a paradoxical circle of logic when it is considered that people usually define their dreams as a want of success, leading to the inevitable reality that billions of people are working for nothing. Their dreams are shadows of truth cast on the cave wall by sadistic puppeteers and sustained by their own ignorance. People use their imagination to dream, by using it to manipulate reality (in their own eyes) into fertile field ready to receive their dreams and bear the fruits of success. This distorted picture of reality, however, is shattered when the fruits do not appear. The biggest irony of all is not that the field isn’t fertile; it is, but that dreams do not blossom because they are not actually planted, and success isn’t achieved because these dreams aren’t founded in reality, but in fairy-land where nothing real ever grows.

Work, Play, and Dreams are all related but it is determined by how you look at the situation that determines if you see it as work or play. For instance if I could Hunt everyday for the rest of my life as a job my job would be playing because I love hunting so much, where another person would hate it and say it is work because they don’t enjoy it and that is the point of view part of it. My dream would be to work every day for the rest of my life by hunting. Most people think I’m crazy for it but it’s my dream and I’m willing to work for it. Once any person figures out their dream the work to get there is no longer work but play because they want it deep down inside. The connection to work is that if you don’t have a dream and your just going threw life with no purpose and you will look at work as work and not as play. As a human you never want to work it must be in our DNA or something but when you have a dream it no longer becomes work but play.

What is the connection between work and dreams? Is there a connection between work and dreams? There is a connection between work & dreams and the connection is that they both will be in your future. And that people dream to work and people work to fulfill their dream. Mostly everybody works and dreams. The only people that don’t dream are people who think that they can’t fulfill their dream. Also if you don not dream then what are you going to work towards. People should dream so they have something to work towards. Why should people work in a job they dislike if they have no dream of moving up? That is really ridiculous. Without work and dreams a person can not be successful. To become successful a person must have goals. A person must also complete those to be successful. You don’t have to be rich to be successful. All you have to do is have a purpose in life and be happy. Some people are rich and are not even happy. They are usually unhappy because how they got so rich, secrets that they want nobody knowing, or they have no family or friends. What good is being rich if you have no body to share it with? People are successful in there in there own way some because they have a family, they are fulfilling their dream, they lived their life with no body controlling it, and etc.

When you think about it, both work and dreams can go together. The only way that you can get to your dream is by working hard to get to it. Whenever there is a goal that you want to achieve you cannot just sit around and wait for it to happen, because I won’t. It would be silly to just sit around and think that your dream is going to come true by not doing anything and waiting for it to happen because it normally doesn’t happen like that. To achieve your goal you will have to work your way up to it. Working hard is the way to go, because when you work hard and try with your best effort then you will achieve our goals and your dreams that you wanted. Also when you have a goal it should be something that is really cool and that you will have fun working for, because when you are doing something that you don’t want to go then it is harder to achieve your goal and you won’t have any fun at all, and everyday would just be a drag and your life won’t be as fun as it should be. But when you have a good dream you can have a fun job that you will think of as play. When you have a dream that you really want you should have fun working. When you finally get your dream you will be very happy that you worked so hard for it. In conclusion that is the connection that I put in between work and play and dreams.

Work and play are closely related to one another. The only difference is if what you are doing, you define as work or play. For example, if I liked to mow the grass (I do not) and thought it was fun so I defined it as play, another person says no way and that it is hard and you need to put effort into it, so they define it as work. It all depends on what you like to do. In some cases work can also be play. It’s possible that you can get a job you actually really like and get paid for it. For example, professional athletes have a job that is all a big game. They get paid to play a game. You should want to have a job that you really enjoy so that your work seems like play to you. This is where your dreams come in.
Dreams are what drive you to both work and play. Dreams are you goals and what you want to get done in life. Your dream is to get that vice-president position at your company, your dream is to build a snow fort so big that you can have the largest snowball fight ever. Without dreams you have no goals. No reason to do anything or try to get things done. Without dreams you are lost and just float through life instead of living through life. This is how work, dreams, and play are all related to one another.

Work and Drreams

Work is what makes you money. Money is what you need to keep you shelter, food and water. In other words though, if you work all the time, you are giving up time in your life. To work is what you have to do to play, well that is how some people think of it in life. But I think of it how I can change the work part into play. The other day Mr. Kreinbring asked me a question of if I would play hockey for the rest of life and, and I actually thought about it. I would say yes because I know thats what I want to do in life and the other thing is that he told me all my bills and basic needs would be payed for. Now that my change the actual answer to it if added that last part in. Biff and WIlly sort of relate to this because they never knew what they wanted to do in life. They had dreams but never committed to them. Now there in their mid ages and they dont know what they want to do. But you have to decide soon, if you want to make a lot of money in life or do what you love doing and not.

In my opinion work, play, and dreams are connected the same. I believe this because to get work you need to play, and dream. This is true because a person will play, and dream and set a goal to do something they want and will work hard to get to it if they really want it. If this is true their work will become their dream and then that would mean they got the dream they wanted and achieve the dream and goal they set for themselves. That is why I believe work, play, and dreams are all connected to be the same thing.

When work, dreams, and play come to mind, I think they are connected in many different ways. Most members of society have a dream in which they work for. Once they have worked hard enough for their dream, they can be rewarded by play. I feel that people work towards achieving their dream. After a person has achieved their dream comes the play. Play is having fun while doing something you really love. A lot of people’s hobbies are linked to their dreams. Even if people don’t achieve their dream, they will still have to work if they want to survive in the real world. In order for a person to get somewhere in life they need to set their mind to what they want to do. Without dreams, hopes, and goals a person cannot reach their aspirations in life.

Dreaming plays a big part in your life as you grow up. Your entire childhood you dream of what you want to be when you grow up and what you what to have. As you progress into adulthood you take those dreams with you. All the work you are doing through out your life, you do in order to reach the dreams you though of as a child. Work should not really be a hassle for you, go into a carrier field that you like to do, so your job is not boring. To be successful means you have a good job and have fun doing what you do. Also just because you have a current job, does not mean you have stop dreaming. Keep dreaming cause sometimes times that is what pulls you through, the tough times in life. Work and dreams can be the exact same thing if you stick to your dreams and go after them. Dream big and chase you dreams, working is just a part of life that you have to do. Dreaming is just like playing, what ever you want to play you can and you can also dream of what ever you want. There are no rules when dreaming. With a job you do have rules but if you have a fun job then your work would be considered playing and if you get the job that you dreamed of while a child then you work would be fun and be you dream job.

Work realistically is not fun at all. But some occupations can be more fun than labor while you still get paid. To me that’s a dream job. Being successful in life means you’re not on the streets homeless and awfully unhappy and depressed. You have a steady fine job, love life, drive a locomotive in your name and live in a home that you’re paying for. Same thing goes for a couple married or not.

I believe that work, play, and dreams are all very similar but then again very separate. Work to a lot of people is something you do to make money which is true but it can be considered as play also. If you consider work as play you probably love your job. I would consider work as play because you have to work hard to get money but in the end you spend that money and get what you want to play. Work and play are connected with dreams because when you make a goal say your goal is to go to college you have to work to get money so you can afford your books and the classes but once you work to get to your dreams you will be able to play. Also in college you will have to work to play. In college there are probably a lot of crazy party’s but you have to get your school work done to be able to go party. That is how work play and dreams are all connected.

When you are a little kid you have dreams and you think about what you want to do but as you get older you really have ideas about what you wanna do. Finally you are in high school or you are a youmg adult and you have made a final decision about what you wanna do now all you have to do is accomplish the requirements and go to college to make your dream or want really happen.When you play something its just for fun or maybe you are determining if you would really want to do this. For example most kids or people enjoyed playing football as a kid and they decided thats their dream and they want to play professional football so then your play will be fun and its something you really wanna do. So you would also set your mind at this and make goals amd make sure you are the best at what you do. Work is something required in life to succeed and that helps you pay bills and make your life better.

When you’re in your childhood you dream a lot of what you want to be when you’re an adult. Dreaming plays a big role of what your career becomes as you get older. You can never stop dreaming because your life can always get better in some way, shape or form. Play becomes a big role of what you want to become also. A lot of children like to play the career they would like to be when they’re adults. When I was a child I always played school with my friends and I was always the teacher, now as I get through high school and about to start college in a few years I want to go to school to become a 2nd-4th grade teacher. So I dreamed of becoming a teacher, and played becoming a teacher, now all I have to do is go to college and get my degree and being a teacher is going to be my carrier. You can always dream of something new and become something else, you may not get as much as you want but if you work hard enough than you will make it to the top and become as successful as you were before. Everybody can dream no matter what, everyone no matter how poor you are can always make it to the top if you just try. I think the connection between all of them is you dream of what you want to be, play what you want to become, and work hard to become successful.

The connection between work and dreams is that work is something that you have to do or something that you don’t want to do, but you have to do it anyways to survive. You gave to work to get money. So you can afford to live in your house and support your family and yourself. Dreams are something you really want and always thought of having or doing. Usually to achieve your dream you have to work to get it, but for some lucky people every once in a while someone will get rich by winning the lottery, winning a big game show, or even being a good singer or actor. Being successful is achieving your dream and to be happy about were you are, or being successful can even be becoming rich luckily. But it doesn’t matter if you have a crappy high paying job or a good low paying job, if you are happy with what you are doing you are successful.

What I think work, dreams, and successfullness are all ment together is by this. Work to me is something that you do in order to make a living but in other cases work is a considering thing. You choose to work because if you have gone to college and you went there to do something you enjoy and want to do, then you work at that specific job you were trained to do. Also you can work towards dreams that you have like for example, you want to be like a Mr.Kreinbring and make the NBA then you would work towards that dream. So work can be anything that you set your mind to and you go for it. Dreams come in when you have this dream to be a chef and you know nothing about it, then that dream to be a chef can be placed if you are willing to step out and go for it. Also if those sporty people try making it into those professional sports by dreaming then that’s something else because usually it is hard making it into those jobs because there is so many people trying out and not making the cut. Those people dream big and there are those that dream small. Now the part that you get successfull comes in when you have that great skill and people want you to be a part of their buisness and you make it. That’s when you get successful but there are those that abuse it and some athletes that make the team and is on the team for a while they get cocky and start doing things that they know is wrong and abusive to others and themselves and that’s when success becomes disaster. But there are those that have dreamed big and got what they wanted to do in their life and is pretty godd at it. They are the successors. I feel that working, dreaming, and successfullnes comes to those who is willing and who has a heart to do it. Those people are successful.

I believe that if you have dreams it may motivate you to work harder but if you dream too much you might as well be playing. You can have a dreams or goal and work to achieve it but if there is no work you won’t achieve even those lucky people who just had the right idea had to work. Without work involved dreams might as well be you playing.

What makes work, dreams, and success the same to me is by the way you have either one. For an example would be that for work is something you do to either support yourself or your family. It is something you do that you’ve been trained for and something you enjoy doing to help others or to make our world better. That’s what I think about work. For dream, has to be about something that you’ve thought about and want to do that may be out of reach. Such as for those kids that want to play in the Pro sports would dream about being either a certain player or playing like them. They just dream and want but they have to work at that dream for a long time and that’s when work comes in. You can’t have a dream that you think you can have without putting forth work into it. Sometimes dreams can even be destroyed by changing your mind or not putting forth work. Success comes in when you’ve done everything and you’ve worked at it for a while. You must have had to do something you enjoy and make that dream come to life by knowing that you made it and you worked for whatever you dreamed on. Some people get successful when they have dreamed and their was that blessing where they were good enough as an athlete and made the Pros but usually those are the people who had a God given talent to do whatever and some others dream and have to work at it but in the end they try to succeed in everything. Success comes when you work and dream hard.

Work and dreams have no connection. You are unable to achieve your dreams through work. You can work to try and get to them. You will never get there though. Dreams are goals that you will work you entire life for and won’t be able to achieve unless you’re lucky. The only way for your dreams to come true is by luck. You have to be born with the right things to be able to achieve them. Sports players are a great example of this. They are born with the genes to be good at something. They don’t try to grow tall, it just happens. You have no control over how you were born or the genes that you end up with. They have to work to be able to be good at it but they are set up with all of the necessary things to be good at it. In the book “The Death of a Salesman” will demonstrates that work and dreams are not connected by always having this thoughts of how his sons and his self would become rich, or how they would one day be able to make a line of sporting goods items. They live in a fantasy world where they think that they will be able to do anything. In reality they are unable to do anything. Willy is even unable to do the simple task of being a salesman. He thinks at times that he is a great salesman or that at one point in his life he was able to walk into a town and everyone knew him. In reality he was not really known at all. This is why there is no connection between work and dreams.

Work, dreams, and being successful all involve some of the same guidelines. To be successful sometimes means to have to work very hard. It also means that in order for a persons dream to become a reality, you must work very hard to be very successful. In Death of a Salesman, Bernard was better in books than in sports. He spent a lot of his time studying and working to be successful and receive his dream. Unlike Bernard, Biff spent more time worrying about his sports and having fun, then trying to be successful. However, sometimes people are born with advantages, like lots of money and opportunities. Therefore, those people have more advantages when it comes to their career choice. But, if any person, wealthy or not, doesn’t at least try to work hard to become successful and achieve their dream, then they will not be able to be happy with their jobs and how their lives might have turned out. For instance, Willy could have done what he wanted and he could have gone off to work in Alaska. But since he did not seem to work hard at that dream, it did not come true. However, Willy did work hard at being a good salesman and trying his best to be successful and earn a lot of money to be able to provide for his family. But whatever the case may be, in order for a person to be successful at the dream that this person may want, then he or she must work very hard to be able to achieve what they want.

Work, play and dreams are all connected. When associating work with play it all depends on how you look at it. But still you can’t do one without doing the other. If I enjoy what I am doing I take it as play, if I am doing something that I wouldn’t do if I had a choice then that’s when I take it as work. Either way I’m still working. So all it really takes is a sudden shift in thinking to decide whether you are working or playing. Some people wake up every morning and go work for a job that they hate. Most of the time people do this for the paycheck or because that is their only choice due to a number of reasons such as family, age, location, transportation and many other things. Getting paid for doing something you love can turn you into a more productive, happier person.
Dream is connected more to play than it is to work. My dream is to make it to the NBA. I can only achieve this through hard work and determination. Basketball is something I enjoy doing, so I don’t ever take it as work but it still is. But the hard work put in to become a great basketball player isn’t always looked as play. It is very tough but I know if I keep working hard it will pay off in the end. So again work, play and dream are all very similar, just depends on your attitude towards it.

Work, play, and dreams are all connected and turn out to meet up with what they want. To get to your dream you should work hard at it, but if u enjoy doing something that is hard but you still like it, it could be counted for work, and play. If you work hard at what your dream is and put a little play time in with that then you should achieve your dream and enjoy what you do for the rest or your life.

Why should we care about Willy?
We should care about Willy because he is very similar to the major population of average people minus the JPC. The reason for this is if we just deal with the problem then we would not have to worry about the JPC and just concentrate on the fixing the problem instead of complaining about it. If we don’t care about the Willys in our life than our lives will be tormented because their JPC will take over and destroy the lives of their loved ones and their own.

Why should we care about Willy?

We should care about Willy for the simple fact that we don’t know what he sales. He is ashamed of himself, and can’t sell things like he used to. Willy can’t pay his insurance because his wife had to pay to fix the refrigerator. He has just been fired from his job too. Willy starts to face the reality that his dreams and teachings were wrong. He starts to know that he is trapped inside a world of a delusional reality. His reality is that being well liked can get you cars, money and other things. He reflects back to the times when he could have made a lot of money from a job offer in Alaska, which was offered by his brother Ben. Willy is a character we need to watch, because of all his flashbacks, it tells a lot about what to look forward too.

Why should we care about willy?

We should care about Willy because he is the perfect example of how over working can cause a person to go crazy. Willy goes “crazy” because he simply over works. When a person over works they don’t have time to enjoy the simplest of thing we enjoy doing every day. Like, having dinners with are families, hanging out with are good friends, and many others. We observe what Willy has done to himself and use it as a prime example of how not to live. Willy has gone crazy from all the years of long hard work days. His priorities are jumbled he has work above all instead of the things that are truly important like friends and family. So the obvious thing to do is learn from Willy’s mistakes and avoid them for the better of your family’s life and your own life.

Why should we care about willy?

Well with out him the family wouldnt be able to make it at all, like they wouldnt even have a chance.They wouldnt be able to pay any bills and I dont know what would happen to them with out Willy. The boys would have to step up and eventualy have to get a jog and stick with it regardless if they like it or not. The family will just fall a part and just expose the lie that all of them are living on.

Why do we care about Willy?

Willy is supposed to represent us, the common folk reaching for the sky, the working people trying to fulfill our dreams. Willy is a warning, showing us the bitter side of dreams. Unable to cope with reality he lies his entire life, building his own reality, telling himself that his dreams have come true and his son’s will too, and he tells himself that it must be true because he is not an ordinary person. He does not, however, entirely fool himself and goes through life bragging one moment and begging for money the next, all the while sorting through his memories, trying to figure out what went wrong and why such an extraordinary person could have his dreams crushed. Ironically, it is his pride that kills him, as he finally realizes his dream. Willy’s dream went from being a good salesman to dying a salesman’s death and getting a huge crowd at his funeral and in his pride killed himself so that everyone would realize what a big man he was. This is why Willy matters; he shows us what happens when we chase a dream founded on delusions and fail to realize it.

Work, play and dreaming are all connected, when you dream about something you really want, you try to achieve it. You work towards it but it doesn’t seem like work at all if you are having fun doing it. You make money doing something that’s helping you work towards your dreams. if you want to go to college you have to work hard at it, but once your finish, you can have fun achieving your dreams.

Why do we care about willy?

Willy seems like he needs some help and support throughout the book. I would feel bad for him because you can just see that he was over-busy with his sales work, he ever took it out on his family and was very mean to his wife, Linda. Willy put everything into is job, and worked way to long and hard to keep it. When working this hard, he gets fired and is very sad, also his son Biff doesn’t want to go into the selling business like he does and wants to work outdoors and actually do work, I think that this kind of upsets Willy. These are all reasons to why I think that we should feel bad for Willy.

To be honest with you, work and play is simply how you look at it. When you look at something with a positive attitude, it may alter your view on whatever your task is. If it is something that you enjoy, you will always see it as play. But on the other hand if you absolutely hate the task, you WILL see it as work. If you find that perfect job, you essentially will reach true bliss. I say that because you will be a very happy person if you are being paid for something that you love to do. Just imagine going to work everyday with a huge smile on your face because you are basically being paid for play.

Willy Lowman is a significant character, but not in the way you might first see him. The character Willy is a liar, cheater, and is not as successful at his job as he would like to be. When you go deeper into what Willy actually represents you find that he is made to symbolize the normal person in a slightly more mentally troubled way. Willy, like most people, lies a lot. Willy, like most people, wants others to see him as successful and to think he is things that in actuality he is not but wishes he was. For example in the beginning of the novel Willy comes home from a sales trip and says to his wife, Linda that he sold way more than he actually did because he wants her to think of him as a providing husband and successful salesman. Willy, like other people, lie because their lives did not turn out the way they wanted them to be. We should care about what Willy represents because it is us, the common man. The struggles we face and the lies we tell to make ourselves feel and seem better than we actually are to others. Willy, like us, covers up his problems with lies and other ways of distracting people from the truth. He represents the dream of a successful job and life along with the unfortunate actuality of not thinking of yourself as successful.

Willy Lowman is a man who I believe we should all care about. As the bible says “do onto me as you would do onto your worst” this means that all men/women should be treated the same way as everyone else. Because of this belief of mine and many other people who believe in god I say that he should be cared about. I don’t much care for how he doesn’t follow this set of rules with the people he interacts with however he is someone we should care about just the same. I hate how he lies all the time but then again there are very few people alive today who don’t lie about something at least once in a while. He is a significant character because he is a perfect example of the American dream gone wrong in the worst kind of way. Thanks to all of the strife that he goes through in his lifetime he ends up killing himself to help his family. The reasoning is noble I will give him that one however like all good characters he has a downside. The man is a shear and utter coward. It is cowardice to kill ones self no matter what the reason is behind it. He thinks he did it for a good reason but the way I see it he did it so that he didn’t have to bear the stress of attempting to work to keep his family afloat. Thus as any good character Willy Lowman is a man with a good side and a bad side as do we all.

Why should we care about Willy Loman?

Willy Loman is someone that everybody should care about. Even though he is not the most moral person with his lying and cheating, he still is a person. Everyone has things they aren’t proud of, and knowing they are morally wrong, do them anyways. Willy is one of these people. We should care about him because he is the type of person that, if we don’t care about them, will do something that could cause destruction. If no one cared about him, then he would do whatever he pleased, and that could possibly cause us to be involved. For example, him becoming foolish, and trying to hurt someone, or being careless, and not caring what happens to anyone else. Willy Loman is someone everyone should care about, know matter how fanatical he might be, because in the end, he is a human being, and everyone should be cared about.

Why should we care about Willy Loman?
I feel that we all should care about Loman, because we all can be like Willy. Everyone in this world lies to make themselves feel better. No one is completely happy with themselves not to tell a little lie here, and there. Willy Loman a man who always has had high hopes for himself and his two sons, lies to make others believe him and also his sons are people that there not. I feel as if I personally should care about Willy because I know if I were to put my self in his shoes I would want people to like me, and I would want my kids to be successful. I care about Willy Loman because he is jus like the rest of us, even though he lies, its human nature.

Why should we care about Willy Loman?
I think that Willy Loman is someone that we should care about. Even though he is a continuous liar and cheater, he is a significant character in the book “death of a salesman”. Willy doesn’t have his priorities straight and maybe he has no morals but a lot of people are the same way. If we don’t care about Willy he is the type of character that will do something drastic to get attention. Like when Linda found the noose in the basement. But in the end know matter how bad things are for a person, everyone needs to be cared for and about.

Why should we care about Willy Loman?
Willy Loman is someone that we should all care about. Even though most people say we shouldn’t care about him because of all his lying and his cheating he is still a person and therefore should still be cared for. Everyone makes mistakes in life but they should not be looked down upon because of those mistakes. Willy is a very significant character in the book death of a salesman. He may not have any morals but a lot of people don’t have morals. If we do not care about Willy Loman he is the type of character that would do something crazy to get attention. But it doesn’t how bad things are for a person. Everyone should still be cared about.

Why should we care about Willy?

We should care because he might not have been the greatest father in the world but he still does his best. As his children grew up he let them do bad thing, which is never a good impression on a child. I really think that Willy tried his best with his kids. I think that Willy just figured that when Happy and Biff got older that they would just realize that what he thought them as children was wrong, he hoped. I think no matter how bad Willy is at being a father, his kids should still love him because he is their dad and you should always love you dad. Willy does not always make the right choice, like trying to kill himself continuously witch is not a smart move because if he is the only money source for his wife Linda then once he is gone, where will she get money from. You should care about people even during there bad times in life, no matter who they are. Willy does get off subject sometimes and that is when he needs people to care about him the most because he needs his family and loved ones to get him set back on track with his mind. Willy should be loved no matter what, even when Biff and Willy fight they still love each other, it shows. They are father and son they will always love each other. Just life even when Willy is mean to Linda she never stop’s believing in him. She will love him till the day he dies. Every person in the world deserves to be cared about.

Work, Play and Dreams.
Words when said can easy be connected. People work because they have dreams to do something, to be somebody. People therefore have to work for those dreams. We spend the majority of our lives working, hoping and praying that we live long enough to enjoy the reward for working so long. The reward in most cases is play. Play to some people including myself can be related to the word “goal” and “dream”, most people at a young age set these goals or dreams for themselves which they intend to work towards ( the play). Though many spend most of there lives working and dreaming about the period after they finish working but never reach the point of play. Some people may end up reaching that point were they can retire from work and follow through with their dreams, but complications during their work period may have caused for some not to end up with the resources to do what they had planned in the dream. Some others may be really unfortunate and may never get the opportunity because of the resources they may need to work, in order to fulfill the dream and play. Work, play and dreams are all connected, it just simply depends on how you think about it.

Why should we care about Willy Loman?

We should care about Willy Loman because he is a human being and every human being should be cared about, no matter what they have done in their life. There is good in everyone. Willy has gone through a lot, he is a depressed salesman, because he got fired and he can’t pay for his insurance, so he wants to kill himself so he could give the rest of his insurance money to Linda. Even though Willy is mean to Biff he is just looking out for him and wants the best for him because he is his son. Willy’s has lots of mood changes because he is getting old. Willy isn’t as good as a salesman as he used to be. That is why we should care about Willy.

I think we should care about Willy Loman because he has problems and we all know that but we should at least think about what he has gone through. In the book it describes when he was a child and he didn’t have the father that he should’ve had because his father would lie and steal and he wouldn’t have that father mentality. But as Willy grew up because he didn’t know the right way to live he became a father and he has two sons that are not living right because of what Willy taught them. Willy should deserve respect and help. He got his sons in a lot of trouble when it came to being a whore and lying and stealing. But Willy needed help and respect for him to change and start being the father a kid wants but he was into anger and as you see at the end Willy doesn’t make it because he felt that he wasn’t worth living for and drove off in his car an crashed and died. So it seemed like he was depressed and ill in the mind towards the world. But if he had deserved better this whole plot wouldn’t have happened. But he still deserves to be cared about. He is a man like any other man who has grown up in a bad home and lived a bad life but he is someone and he needs to be cared.

I think that Lone Star’s quote most accurately describes the relationship between work and dreams. You must think and dream of something before you can start to work on it. I mean, Edison wasn’t just fooling around with some junk when he invented the first light bulb. He had dreamed of the bulb, and thought about it and planned it. It wasn’t an accident. But he also had to work to complete his dream. I mean, if you only dream and spectulate, you’ll end up just like Willy, Biff, and Happy. After all, the only place success comes before work is in the dictionary. And success doesn’t have to mean that you have a bunch of money. Success has many different aspects, because every person has a different definition of what success means. For me, success means being happy and in love. I could have the crappiest house, car, etc. and not care as long as I’m happy and have that one special person with me. Success would also be becoming a vet for horses, and owning horses, cats, and a dog (named Joker). I very much dislike the fact that to be successful, according to the world, you have to have millions of dollars and the best of the best when it comes to stuff (I think this view of ’success’ is what got us into this stinking economic crisis in the first place). Anyway, being a good worker is important, but being a good dreamer is even more important.

Unbelievable. It wouldn’t work when I submitted my real comment, so I tested it with “Hi” and it worked. Freaking stupid… grumble…

Anyways, here it is again: Why we should care about Willy

I think we should care about Willy because he hasn’t had that great of a life, according to the world. He has a good job, but he’s not good at it and he doesn’t like doing it (though he won’t admit to this). He travels all the time so he can’t spend as much time with his family. He ends up getting fired, when they only have one payment left on the house. His son Biff is a bum, and Happy is a ho*. He cheated on his wife. But it’s also more than just these things. He and his sons have lied and speculated all their lives. They have no roots, and not enough gumption to have wings (they need Red Bull). They have nothing. This is why we should care about Willy, or pity him at least. He made his plans but all he built was an empty man, because it was all fake. As The Joker said, “I try to show the schemers how pathetic their attempts to control things really are. You were a schemer, you had plans… and look where that got you”. Tehe!

I think that we should care about Willy Loman because no body is problem free. Willy has had a very difficult life and has many problems. Some may not think that we should care about Willy because he is just “some old guy with lots of problems”, however, if this were you in Willy’s place, you would want people to care for you. For people that have problems, all they need is a person to believe in them and the they start to believe in themselves. Before you know it, that person with all of those problems suddenly has less. Everybody in this wold has at least one person that loves them, and many that care about them, why should we care about others, but not care about Willy? Willy is a son, a dad, a husband, a bother, an uncle, a cousin and more, so why should we not care about some one who is practically just like us? i think we should care about Willy.

I shouldn’t care about Willy Loman because he’s everything I disgust, and he denies his faults, but he’s still a person. He’s been through hell and it’s made him an unusual guy. It’s not his fault. We should care about him because people who don’t get help end up hurting themselves or others.

Why should we care about Willy Loman?
I think we should all care about Willy Loman because in our society Willy is an example of what people don’t want to become. People don’t want to be hypocrites, liars and beggars. You don’t want to teach your kids to steel and lie. I think that Willy Loman is a good example for everyone, as a way not to act.

There is much that I can learn from Willy and his family. The most important of which is that dreams are a very powerful thing. The dream managed to keep Willy alive for over sixty years of pain, suffering, and cheating. If a dream can do this much then it has to be a powerful entity in itself. However even with the potential for a dream to do good for a being it has an even higher potential to do harm to a one. It was the dream itself that caused the pain and suffering. Willy couldn’t get it done so that he could support his family in the way that the dream wants him to. The dream itself made Willy, Biff, and even Happy forget who/what they really are. They think they are well liked and high ranking salesmen because their dream tells them that that’s what they’re supposed to be at this point. However by them thinking this they are lying to themselves and others, which is destroying their subconscious minds, driving them mad. Willy is crazy as a fruit bat because all these lies that he is telling are starting to loose their ability to line up and keep everything straight. Thanks to this he is starting to see that everything that he knows is a lie. Such a blow would destroy a mind like a hammer destroys a walnut. Biff I believe is probably the healthiest out of the bunch in the ways of the mind. His mind is having a hard time putting the lies back together but he can accept the truth and therefore his mind will remain mostly intact because he isn’t dependant on this dream like Willy is. Biff hasn’t worked for this dream all his life. Willy has and because of this he is definitely off of his rocker. Thus I have much that I can learn from these characters.

I can learn numerous things from the Loman family. From Willy, I can learn some dreams; you just aren’t able to reach. Some people can imagine that they have the a dream by convincing themselves with lies and cheating. But truth is, they don’t and they have false leading hope. The people that think that they have their dream, like to instill in others the fact that they should get complete their dreams too. Biff was convinced by his father that he needed to get a good playing job, and make a ton of money, and liked by all. Biff kept trying to complete the task of getting the dream, but failed every time. He was trying to get his father’s dream, and not his. Biff didn’t know what he wanted in life, but learning from his father, he had to become successful some how. I learned from Happy that no matter what, a child will always want his or her father’s approval in what they do. Happy is always trying to impress Willy with the fact that one day he is going to get married, or that he has been losing weight. From Linda, I learned that some people just need a lot of care instilled in them. Linda cares so much for Willy, but Willy still treats Linda like she’s nothing to him. Love, in Linda’s case, can’t be stopped by his constant rudeness, and belligerent behaviors. She loves him no matter how badly she is treated by him. In all, the Lomans’ teach me that I need to have my own dreams, and that I can’t let the lies and cheating interfere with what I want most.

Why Should We Care About Willy Loman?
We should care about Willy Loman because this is a type of person we don’t want our kids to become when they get older. He has a job he doest want. He teaches his kids to lie and steal. He also always contradicts himself. Willy Loman should be paid attention to so that hopefully most people won’t turn out like him.

Do you think either one of the Loman boys will be okay?
I feel that Biff Loman will be okay, but Happy Loman may not be okay. I feel that Biff will be okay because he now knows who he is and what he wants out of life. Happy however at the end of the book seems to want to keep believing the lie Willy has laid out for them. I think if Happy were to find who he is and figure out what he wants he will do just fine in life.

Willy Loman is a perfect example of what to not be in life. He lies, cheats, steals, has no money, and takes the easy way out. He only lives on dreams and he teaches his kids to steal and that being well liked can get you anywhere in life, which is wrong. If Willy would have been a better father Biff and Happy might not be what they are, which is exactly like their father. There in there thirties still living with their parents and neither one of them has an actual job. They also live their lives based on only dreams. Living on dreams is not a good way to live life; it will not get you very far. We should care about Willy because he teaches us how not to live and to not believe the same lies and make the same mistakes he did.

How would Biff be different if he had his own dreams?
Biff would be a completely different character if he had his own dreams. He lives by everything his father has taught and told him and that is the reason he is the way he is. His whole life Willy has told him that the will never get anywhere in life if he isn’t well liked. Willy believes that as long as you are well liked you can go far in life and make lots of money. Willy thought he was a very well liked salesman and thought there would be tons of people at his funeral. Willy was very wrong, because the only people at his funeral were his wife, kids, and Charley. Biff should have realized that everything his dad had told him was a lie. If Biff had his own dreams he could have his own house, and a wife and kids of his own. He could have a great job and make lots of money. But in Death of a Salesman he does not have his own dreams so he does not have any of those things.

What can I learn from Biff, Happy, and Linda?

Biff, Happy, and Linda are a perfect example of what a family isn’t. They lie, cheat, steal, and do anything they can to try and get by. They do all of this are still not successful in life. Biff was in jail for a few years, Happy lives with his parents and sleeps with numerous women because he that’s how he was raised by his father. Linda is a mistreated mother and wife. She is yelled at often for no reason at all. She was cheated on by her husband. The biggest mistake of his whole family is Willy. He is a lying, cheating, hypocritical, contradictor and one of the worst fathers that there could be. Willy tells his kids to do what ever they want to get by. Biff is almost a perfect example of his father. He lies and steals to get what he wants to try and be successful. The entire Loman family lives in a little world in where they can get anything they want if they try. They try to think that everything is fine when they are really not doing well at all as a family. Willy is the most corrupt character in the entire book, but also is one of the sanest. He realizes that his family is in trouble and in order to save his family he has to do the only thing that he can think of, kill himself so that they can get the insurance money. The thing we can learn from the Loman family is to not be like the Loman family.

What do you think will happen to Biff and Happy?
If there were to be a sequel to this play, in my opinion I believe that Biff would end up becoming depressed. I feel this way from the stand point that Biff may feel that he is responsible for the death of his father. Happy being the character that seemed to be clueless and out of the loop most of the time, I believe will on the most part continue the direction that he is going in. Happy in my opinion will just continue being a male hoe, until he feels that he has met the right girl, and eventually starting his own family. Biff having the possibility of becoming depressed, may lead to something more drastic, like suicide. If there was a sequel to the play “The Death of a Salesman”, this is how the plot would go.

How does willies dream keep him alive for 60 years?

I believe that his dream kept him alive for that long because it gave him something to do or something to try to obtain. It was his motivation to keep going. Willy was very prideful he would have never given up on his dream even though he knew that it was impossible. As for biff and happy I think that they will never be successful. Their thoughts and ideas about their future, sounds like a fairytale. Its sounds like it can never come true. They will never fulfill their dream by doing what they plan to do. I think that if biff didn’t share a dream with his dad and his brother then he would have chose something else. He would have probably chosen to be a carpenter because he said that, that’s what he wants to be, but his dad said no. what I can learn from the lomans, is that I should get a job and move out of my parents house and start my life at a certain age, and not depend on them for everything. I also learned that I need to do what I want and not what my parents want because what I want is something that I would work hard for. If I do something that I don’t want to then I would be working and I don’t want to work. I want to do what I love, which is not considered working.

Work, Play, and Dreams

Work is something that a lot of people don’t like to do. You have to be really committed and willing to cope with a lot of things when you are in the work industry. The opposite of working would be playing. You could be playing around to find a job, and actually try to commit to a job. You can’t play at life. Life has to much set aside from you and you have to run after it. If you don’t work to it you’re not going to accomplish anything. You have to set little goals that will get you to your dream. When you start accomplishing your goals, you can make new ones and set higher standards for yourself. The American Dream is a lot different to a lot of people. The American dream to some is to be rich and live job free, which isn’t the American Dream for me. I would have to say that the American dream is someone accomplishing a really good goal in their and trying to move forward to do bigger and better things. The American Dream is when you are always moving forward to try and be a better person. So to sum everything up, the similarities between work, play and dreams is that you have plenty of choices to make. Whether you decide to work to your dream, or you decide to play around and watch others accomplish their dream. Its for you to decide. What would your choice be??

What can I learn from Biff, Happy, Willy, and Linda?

What I learned from Biff is unlike Willy and Happy, Biff feels compelled to seek the truth about himself. While his father and brother are unable to accept the miserable reality of their own lives, Biff acknowledges his failure and eventually manages to confront it. If I had Willy as my father I would not go for Willy’s dream, I would go for my own because of the disrespect and faithlessness that Willy gave Biff. What I learned from Willy is when I have kids I will let them have their own dreams and support it because it is important to have a good relationship with your family, unlike the Loman family. Overall what I learned from the Loman Family is that they are a failure of a family that would not go very far in real life. Biff lies and steals, Happy sleeps with a lot of women, and Willy is not a very good father and husband. He is the role model of them all that influences them to act their way. Willy should learn to not only think about himself because he thinks that the whole world is about him. Just like Biff and Happy. Linda is the most realistic, caring, and level headed character in the play, and she is mistreated by Willy, Happy, and Biff. What I can learn from the Loman family is they are corrupt and a family like them will not survive.

Lingering DOAS questions
What would happen if Biff had his own dream?
Biff is part of a family written to not understand reality, but he is liberated from their delusions as a child. The only thing holding him back is his lack of a dream of his own. If he could dream in a way other than his father- sugar-coated, can’t fail’, going to succeed in every way- he might able to become something. Biff has potential to become whatever he wants, but he doesn’t have any dreams to work toward.
What will happen to Biff and Happy?
Biff and Happy are very different people destined to similar fates. Happy has never lost faith in his father’s dream. He is doomed to the exact fate as Willy, premature death at his own hands. The only person that could have ever prevented his fate is Willy, but since he is no longer around the stage is set for a second generation of failure. Biff’s future is less clear, he has potential to go either way, up or down. If he finds a dream he is likely to succeed, but any dream he has will have to come from someone else, he has little ability to think for himself. If he fails to be inspired nothing will stop him from ending up like his brother. The only difference is that Biff might be able to tell that he is failing, whereas Happy will remain semi-happy, experiencing mood swings similar to Willy’s. The entire Loman family is destined to not succeed, because they are not entirely free from Willy’s influence.

How would Biff be different if he had his own dreams?
If Biff wasn’t following in his father’s footsteps I think he would have a better life overall. Biff doesn’t want to be a salesman like his dad, he likes doing outside work. Willy wants him to be a salesman just like him, and being something like a farmer just would fit what he should be doing and doesn’t fit him. The reason why he likes doing thinks outside inside or being a salesman is that you are actually doing physical work and not just sitting in an office making phone calls. Biff would be happy more often and have more fun when doing something he actually wants to do. That is overall why Biff’s life would be different if he has his own dreams.
What can I learn from Biff?
By reading about how much Biff is saddened by his work, this shows me that I should go for my own dreams and not just a dream that someone wants for me. I should have a dream that makes me happy, a dream that I will have fun trying to achieve. If I was working for a dream that someone else wanted for me, I would not want to work as hard and I wouldn’t like that to do that kind of work all the time. It is sad that biff doesn’t get to live out his dream and get stuck in his father’s footsteps and I don’t want that to happen to me.

What will happen to Linda now that Willy is gone, after the insurance money is gone?
Once Willy is gone Linda is left with Biff who will probably move away to find a job he likes and Happy who is a lazy womanizer. After Linda has used up all the insurance money what can she do? Her job alone is most likely not enough to pay for both her and Happy who will probably always be a bum. Biff, if he finds a job, may have to support the rest of his family. She could also try to find someone to marry again whom she could leech off of.
Why did Willy actually commit suicide other than for insurance money?
Why would someone kill themselves so their family could get a little insurance money? More than likely you would be causing more problems for your family. Killing yourself takes the income you used to get away from them, you leave your wife, Linda, lonely and your kids kind of messed up. Any debts he had will have to be paid off with that money and then your family is right where they were before you killed yourself. The memory of you would be that crazy guy who killed himself. Why would you want that for yourself and your family?
Why is Willy seen as crazy throughout the play?
Even from the start of the play where he had trouble driving shows that Willy is going to be “off” through the whole play. His craziness could be from not accomplishing his dreams that he had and seeing the dreams he had for his sons not being fulfilled. He lies just to make it seem like he has accomplished his dreams but really he has not. Maybe if he stuck to his dreams and wasn’t always lying and trying to impress everyone, people would like him and not think he’s weird.

What would happen if Biff had his own dream?
Biff needs his own dream. Him, being a salesman would not work because he is nothing like his father. He has the potential to do well. If he was to do something like become a farmer or work as a carpenter I believe he would be much better off because it would be something that he could enjoy unlike driving all the time and trying to sell products like his father, Willy. Biff wants to do physical, hands on work, he doesn’t want to drive or sit in an office all day, everyday of his life.
What will happen to Biff and Happy?
I think that Happy is going to grow to be just like his father, he would probably become a salesman and wind up becoming miserable just like Willy. He was just too supportive of his father. Happy needs to start making his own choices. As for Biff, I just really think that he would be a lot better off doing something he likes and can enjoy. He needs to do something physical. He cant just sit around or he will go insane like Willy did.

I think that Biff and Happy will continue on the path that they are on. All their life they have lied, cheated and stolen their way through life, when Biff tried to tell the truth and become a better person, he fell right back into the same old routine and couldn’t keep up the truth act, so therefore, I believe that the boys will not change. Honestly, I don’t think that Happy will fulfill his dads dream because he has to fulfill this own dream first and his dream and life are lies. I have only something’s that I can learn from the Loman Family. The most important is that dreams are an important thing. Willy’s dream and his lies managed to keep him alive for over sixty years of lying, cheating and pretending. If just a dream can do this much then it has to be an extraordinary thing within itself. However, a dream can also cause pain as well as pleasure. It was Willy’s dream itself that brought on the pain and suffering. Willy couldn’t sell and support his family in the way that him dream wants him to. Their dreams themselves made everybody in the Loman Family forget who they were except for Linda…she remained the same. The boys believe that they are popular, high ranking salesmen because it is their dream that tells them that that’s what they’re supposed to be at this point.

I think that the Loman family is pretty messed up and Biff is the only son who figured out his own dream. He also figured out the lie that he was living in, the same lie that took his father all the way to the day that he committed suicide. Biff did not base his dream off of what other people told him he should want in his life and he follows his dream of working hard in huge farm fields. He always said he loved working with his hand and having his shirt off in the open fields. I also think that Happy is going to try and follow his father’s dream of being the best sales man possible. He said he wanted to do this in remembrance of his father. At this moment Happy has created a false dream because he tells us in that book that all he wants is to work out in that country with is brother and now he throws it all away for a fake dream. Based on his attitude and bad business decisions threw out his life I know he will not become a good salesman and he will become a liar and a cheater just like his dad living on an unreachable dream. That is what I think will happen to the Loman Brothers Biff and Happy.

http://artofmanliness.com/2008/10/02/lessons-in-unmanliness-willy-loman/

This is a link to a blog from a well respected website that I thought I could show. It’s a great assessment about Willy Loman. I wanted to write how Willy was a bad exemplar teaching me how not to conduct myself in life. But I figured this lecture would be more accepted by others than my own.

Work is a very big part of being successful for most people. Dreams on the other hand usually have to do with things you can do after work. I dream to have a good life, and family, but I believe that in order to accomplish this dream I have to make a good amount of money which means I have to work. These things combined are my vision of being successful. Willy shares the same view as me and he is troubled because it has not worked out for him, he does not make enough money to realize this dream, this bothers him so much that he is going crazy. Willy is so angered that he could not achieve this that he is contemplating committing suicide. Dreams are good to have but if you dream too big then you can end up going crazy, no matter what you do there is better, the key to being successful is to be content with what you have and control your ambition to do the impossible. This means that you should not buy the shiny red sports car when you can only afford the station wagon, you should not take a loan on your house to buy that powerful motorcycle. Success should not be judged by how much money you have, but by how content you are with your situation. This is the problem with work, success, and dreams; no one knows when to stop, no one knows when it is enough.

I believe that biff is the only one in the Loman family who figured out his own dream. Biff did not base his dreams off what other people told him to want, he based it off what he wanted and that was to work in big farm fields. Biff always said he likes working with his hands and working with his shirt off. Working on a farm is the perfect place to do that. Happy said that he wants to fulfill his fathers dream of being the best salesman he can be. Happy said he wants to fulfill his fathers dream in remembrance of his father. According to the book this is not the dream that happy wants. In the book Happy says he wants to work on a farm with his brother and by being a salesman that is not the dream that he really wants. I think that happy is following the wrong foot steps by being a salesman I think he will end up just like his father being a liar and a cheater. This will cause happy to be just like father and be a bad salesman and therefore not be able to reach his dream. That is what I think will happen to biff and happy Loman.

Work, play, and dreaming are all connected, if you think about it. Playing leads to a dream, dreaming leads to working and at the end you’ve connected playing, dreaming, and work together. First, you have to figure out what your dream is. A dream is a goal that you want to try and achieve. To achieve that dream you have to work to get there. People dream to accomplish something big that they have their mind set on. They will strive and work hard for it. With work and dreams it may take awhile but with time and hard effort people will achieve that dream. Once you get over the hard work of perusing all your goals your only left with that one thing and that is play or relax as I see it.

Work, play, and dreams are all connected. When you play it leads to a dream that you want to achieve and if you get to your dream it leads to work. When you play you eventually realize what your dream is and what you want your goal to be in life. When you figure out your goal and try as hard as you can to achieve it, it eventually turns out to be work.

Redoing my “Why should we care about Willy?”

Willy Loman is someone that everybody should be concerned about. Even though he is not the most moral person, with his lying and cheating, he still is a person. Everyone has things they aren’t proud of, and knowing they are morally wrong, do them anyways. Willy is one of these people. We should care about him because he is the type of person that, if we don’t care about them, will do something that could cause destruction in his life or the lives of others. If no one cared about him, then he would do whatever he pleased, and that could possibly cause us to be involved. For example, him becoming foolish, and trying to hurt someone, or being careless, and not caring what happens to anyone else. He could do anything just so he can receive attention. Willy, to me, represents most of the people that I know, which is the common person. He represents the people that work hard to get somewhere in life, but fails at doing so. Like Willy Loman, we all make up lies just so that we can be perceived better by our peers. If you think about it, everyone lies one way or another. We shouldn’t stop caring about someone because they happen to lie. That means Willy Loman is no exception. Although we might not want to care about Willy, he is a drastic character, and he needs the attention and care of others.

Why should we care about Willy?

We should care about Willy because he is a human, and he is an every day man “a dime a dozen” as Biff says it. Willy is the potential of all people that is why we should care about him. Not only is he a person in the book he is someone who could be you or me because Willy doesn’t exist it is the idea of Willy that scares us.

Was it Willy’s unwillingness to change or accept change what killed him?

Could it be that Happy was not like his father and did not have to change to be happy and that Willy’s lessons in life could have helped him or is he just as corrupt as his family?

Why does Linda love Willy he seemed to have never given her the respect she deserved?

Work, play and dreams are very different. However they can also mean the same thing. Work means to trade your time and life for money. Play however means to trade your time and life for your amusement. If you have a job where you play a proffessional sport, you a re playing and working at the same time. The way I see it, work and play are the same only if you see it that way. You can play around with your dream, and you can work at your dreams, but if you play around with work, you may play too much and lose your job. So some people may look at it differently. But overall, I think that it is just what you think that matters.

Unanswered Question from Death of a Salesman.
I only have a few unanswered questions. Like do you think the boys will be ok? I think it will take some time for them to be ok but Happy still has some very important things he needs to realize. Happy needs to come to the realization that his father was very confused in life and that he did not know what the right and wrong thing were to teach his children. Lying is not something you want to teach your kids because if can get them in further trouble in their life time. Biff does not need to realize as much as Happy but still has much to learn about his father. Biff knows more truth about his father than Happy does, Biff knows that his father was a cheater and was very confused about what was right and wrong. Happy still has no idea. Another question I have is why would Linda put up with Willy’s crap all the time? I think that she always puts up with it because she thinks that she is the only one who could ever love a man that disrespects her all the time. She puts up with him because she will forever love him and all he has done for his entire life. The last question I have is why did Biff never tell his mom about his father cheating? I believe that Biff never told him mom because he knew what devastating effects it would have on his mother if the love of her life was cheating on her.

I find that the Loman brothers will be alright in the end. After the death of there father Willy, I think they both realized that their whole life they were lived was a lie. That how they were raised and taught. That sometimes it’s okay to lie if you get something out of it. Biff had dreams, he did not base his dreams off what people told him to do and what would be best. He loved working on farms and with his hands. With Happy I think he will follow in his father’s footsteps by being a salesman and being the best that he can be. He said that he wanted to do that for his father. Happy isn’t following his dreams he’s doing something that will be in remembrance of his father. He should do something that will make him happy at the end of the day.

Work. Work is supposed to be something that we can enjoy doing over and over for a long period of time. Dreams. Dreams are suppose to inspire you to do what you want to but they are more along the lines of desire and . Both of these thing, no mater how similar or different, can be also summarized as play. Think about it. Play can be something you do over and over again (work) or something that inspires you to do things with you’re life. The deference is condition. With work you can get board and unimaginative. With play and dream your constantly entertained and use you imagination to its fullest. This is why I fully agree with Mark Twain’s quote: “Work and play are words used to describe the same thing under differing conditions.” He takes the full essence of ’work and play’ and summarizes them in to one sentence. Genius! Although the part of dreams is left out but that can go like that. Though vital to work and play, in the end dreams are but an illusion in this funny, messed up thing we call life.

Basically the only question I have about the play is why did Willy actually commit suicide? I mean his life wasn’t that bad. Everything gets tough sometimes that doesn’t just mean you go off and kill yourself. If everyone killed themselves every time their life got a little hard then there would be no humans living, in the end everything will eventually get better. He obviously wasn’t thinking while he did it because what’s going to happen to Linda now how is she going to support her and the family/ family expenses?
One more question I have is why is Linda so “in love” with Willy? As we seen in the movie Willy really isn’t that nice to Linda. Whenever she tries to talk he always is telling her to be quit, and if she keeps talking he starts yelling at her telling her telling her to shut up. No wife should be treated that way by their husband. You should treat people the way you want to be treated. I think Willy needs to learn that.

I have four unanswered questions from The Death of a Sales Man. My first question is why doesn’t Linda tell Willy, Biff and Happy that their dream is unrealistic? She has to know that Biff and Happy are not well know guys in the business world, they can’t even get a real job. So why would some business man want to give them 15,000 dollars to start a sporting good business? Biff and Happy are in their thirties and aren’t athletic at all. The second question I had was why does Linda put up with Willy? Linda doesn’t even stand up for herself; she just lets Willy boss her around all the time. If I had a husband and he kept telling me to shut up and to stop interrupting him I would punch him in the face.

Has Willy always been this crazy? When Willy would have his flash backs they would show him as being the same type of person, a hypocrite and a liar, but then how could he have made a descent living for his family for so long as a salesman . The last question I had was why would Willy cheat on Linda? Linda has to put up with all of Willy’s problems and that’s how he repays her, by cheating on her? She is probably is the best wife Willy could have, she does everything for him, comforts him after a bad day at work and buys him cheese. It makes no sense that he would do that.

Everyone has a dream, or even dreams. They could have all different things that they feel they would want. People are always changing the specifics of their dreams. Most people’s dreams include themselves being successful. Being successful is also something that changes from person to person. Most of the time it includes a person being well known, and a person being wealthy. Most people are always striving to achieve their dreams. That’s how life tends to work. They make themselves known around others, trying to leave their mark on the world. If a person can do this they’re well on their way to achieve being successful.

Will the Biff and Happy be alright?

Ifeel that they will not be alright for a couple of reasons. The first reason is both Biff and Happy don’t have stable jobs. Biff doesn’t even have a job and Happy is pretty much a bagger! They both are caught up in a dream that could never come true. Biff understands that Willy was a cheat and a lair and doesn’t feel sorry for him but, Happy believes the illusion Willy puts before him. So, I feel Happy will try to be just like his father and live in a dream world filled with secrets and lies and try to become a salesman just like Willy. While Biff, might be alright. Biff understands the difference between his father’s dream and actual life so, if Biff can get on his feet and stop procrastinating, he could make a difference doing something he loves to do as a hobby like farming. Sadly, thou if Biff allows hatred to rule his life then he will do no better than Willy and eventually, hate himself enough to talk himself into doing something he would regret like being consumed by work and forgetting the important things in life like family and friends.

Work, play, and dream are words that we can talk about in ways what we do and why we do. But in ways we have to do things that we don’t like and later it will all pay off, but why can’t we do things that we can enjoy and still get the same benefits, and outcomes. I guess that’s the way the working business works but this is where I don’t get it; some people don’t look to their dreams to where they can make things happen for them. As to me I look to my work, play, and dream all towards soccer because I work hard for it, I love playing the game as for play, and for the dream is to become professional.

People’s lives could be sum up in three words work, play, and dreams. That is something I never thought. But, when I did think about, you work to play, play to dream, and then you dream to play and work. All connected in a simple sentence. A dream is a goal that you try to make real. But, you have to work to make it come true and once it happens it’s now, it time to have fun.

I believe that we should care about Willy because he is just like any of us. He has a dream to do and be something great. Willy sacrificed a lot to stay and take care of his family. For example, he could have had a career using his hands, but decided that it would be better to try and use his wits and brains to make a living so he could make good money. We should care about him because he also trys really hard to be a friend to everyone. It was always mentioned that if a person is well liked and has contacts, then that person will go far. However, that did not always apply. Unfortunately, this did not apply to Willy either. But, he still carried on with his life, being as happy and independent as he could be. And even though he was not the greatest man and treated Linda poorly, he was still loved by her and his sons for providing for them and giving them support.

There are a couple of questions I have about the book. The questions I have are the ones that I didn’t understand why. The book left me with unanswered questions which are:
Do you think the boys will be ok?

I don’t think happy will be ok because he loved his father more than biff. Biff loved his father, but I don’t think he liked him as much as Happy.

Why doesn’t Linda leave Willy? Willy treats Linda wrong, he yells at her, and disrespects her. She should have left Willy a long time ago. When he yelled at her she didn’t say anything. I think she is scared to stand up for herself.

Why didn’t biff get a job? When he knew he was getting older, he should have tried to get a job. He stayed with his mother and his father. Biff is 34 years old, and doesn’t have a job and stays with his parents.

Why didn’t Willy listen to Bernard? When Bernard told Willy that Biff was going to flunk, Willy didn’t believe him.

Why did Willy ask Ben what should he teach them? I found it strange that he asked that. Willy should know what to teach his boys.

What is Ben a symbol for? I think Ben is symbol for Willy’s dream. Ben is what Willy didn’t become. Why would Ben be the character which makes an impact on the story? Ben is what; Willy wants his boys to become. Willy wants Biff and Happy to try to achieve what Ben did.

Work Play and Dreams

Their all connected in some way shape or form. When your young you “play” how you want yourself to be. When you get older you’ll work hard to get to those dreams so you’ll no longer be playing. You’ll no longer have that dream because it wil be a reality.

Why didn’t Willy just stop being prideful and take the job that Charley offered him? Instead of offing himself he could have just taken the job from Charley and eventually paid off the house and had a semi-decent life with a paid house payment. He was selfish in the fact that he killed himself. All he thought of was that he was getting the family the money and not the grief he caused

Will the boys be ok ?
No the boys aren’t going to be alrigth because Happy still goin to be the same being the assistant to the assistant to the assistant. If Happy keeps sleeping with everybody’s wife he won’t have a job. What biff is trying to do, cost money which he has none of .I don’t think he has enough patience to start over. SO they are going to be in trouble.

Hey Mr. Kreinbring,
I just got a missing assignment report saying that my third blog for this is missing. However all three blogs are here. I’ll get it signed off later today but please make haste in getting this fixed. Thank you much Kreinbring.

Why should we care about Willy?

Willy is what makes the whole story possible. Willy is the reason that we have a problem. Willy is the the only thing that really matters in the book other than Biff, because Willy would still be crazy if everybodyelse was gone. However metaphorically, we are Willy. We see life through Willy’s eyes in the book, and so if anything happens to him, it’s like it’s happening to us. That is why we like Willy.

What have I learned from Biff?

I have learned many things from Biff, such as having many dreams and goals in life. Biff grows up with many problems but starts to find work and follows his goals. I have many goals in life that I want to reach. This is why I believe Biff will be alright. Happy I believe will not, Happy does not know how to take the next step without Willy telling him what to do, but I believe if happy just follows his brother he will be alright.

I believe that work, play, and dreams are interconnected. Whether someone wants to be rich, or if they just want to be wealthy they will have to work at some point in their lives. I believe that without work there can be no play and dreams. How can you play with a basketball if no one works to make the ball? How can you dream to have a big house if no one builds the house? Other than that problem; how can you pay for a big house, or a basketball without working? Success is also a word that means different things to different people. To some people sharpening a pencil the right way is success while to others saving a persons life may not even be a success. Most people believe that accomplishing your dreams is success. I agree with this, and it also means that Willy was not successful. Willy’s dream was to have people who cared about him; he dreamed that many people would remember him and come to his funeral, just like the old salesman he met. Willy wanted to be able to make a living from his contacts. This obviously did not work out for him. He failed at accomplishing every aspect of his dream, he lost everything that he cared about and at the end he saw the only way to fix things was giving his kids 20,000 dollars by killing himself. Work, dreams, and success are all part of the big game called Life.

Why should we care about willy?

Willy is a troubled man that does not know hwere he belongs. He does work that he does not like because he thinks it is the right thing to do. In my eyes he is disabled, he was hit by the truck that is modern society. Willy fought to fit in, he wanted to be like everyone else and in the end he accomplished this feat. He ended up like the man he admired, dead.

Work, play, and dreams are all connected in the end but different in some ways. When you set a goal towards your dream you have to work towards it and the play comes later. After you complete your goal and get where you wanted to be. Work always will be a part of your life because in order for you to get where you want to be you have to work to get there. When dreaming the goal you set it your dream. And play will always come last because you’re not always guaranteed to get that. But you are guaranteed that in the end it will all play off and your dream will come true. But sometime you can’t do things that you enjoy and get same benefit and same outcome. If you work hard and apply yourself towards your goal you will get your dream. There is no point in dreaming if you’re not going to put your all in what you are trying to get. But you shouldn’t do something that you hate or can’t stand. You should find something that you can manage and work towards. Being successful is being happy where you are at in your life and making a living doing what you are doing. You won’t always get to where you want sometimes you have to work hard to get there. I look forward to working towards my dream and wont stop for nothing I will keep working harder and harder till I get to my dream.

I think that we should care about Willie becaues he’s an old man who is’nt respected by his kids and he wasnt to kill himself. He is a very un happy person it seems lik an you shouldn’t be ok with the fact the anyone wants to kill themselves.

Overall thoghts.

After reading Death of a salesman, I can’t help but think what Willy’s dream actually was. If it was to be the best salesman, than that was over when he ws fired. If it was to pay off the money he owed, then why didn’t he accept a job from Charley, when he practically begged him to take a job. It was a good story, but it was some what confusing to me. It was never revealed what Biff’s plan was either. They never said what happened to the Loman line plan that they came up with. I don’t think Willy really knew what he wanted. I think that it was written like that to express how clueless Willy really was.

Why should we care about willy?

We should care about Willy because he was a good salesman. He cared and was honest and through his personality he sold his goods. Time has moved on, but Willy hasn’t. The business world has moved ahead and the way of selling goods had changed, but Willy can’t see this. Willy Loman has never come to terms with reality. He has lost touch with reality and is slowing losing his mind. His life is a dream and derives all his pleasures from the past and he always assures himself that all is well. Willy’s character is full of pride; he doesn’t really care about anything else. If he has his pride, he is happy. He has pride in his sons and pride in being independent.

Final ideas

After reading death of a salesman’s , I was a little disappointed because he killed himself and I thought that there was another way that he didn’t have to kill himself. But besides that the book was good, a little hard to follow with him always second guessing himself. I always wanted to know what happened to Willy and why he was losing his mind. What was it that made him live in the past and not the present and why he depend so much on his kids. And I didn’t get why he never just took the job from Charley when he knew that he just lost his job and need the money. He had so much pride that it really got the best of him. To me Willy really was losing his mind and needed help and his family wasn’t helping only making it worse and in the end it couldn’t take it anymore. He didn’t know what he wanted and it really got to him in the end.

Work, play, and dreaming are all connected, if you think about it. First, you have to figure out what your dream is. A dream is a goal that you want to try and achieve. Once you figure that out you work and play to achieve that dream. Now work, when I think about it, is a way of making money and being able to pay the bills, and buy things I want and need. If you like the work you do then you can consider it play. I like my job I consider it both work and play. I make money, I have fun, and at the same time I’m working to make money. Another way of thinking about it is if you plan on going to college and getting a degree in something, you have to work. You cant play around, you have to get serious and pay attention. Therefore you can reach you dream, which is the same thing as your goal.
