Success: Accomplishing Your Dream Completing the "American Dream" is a controversial issue. The American Dream can be defined as having a nice car, maybe two or three of them, having a beautiful, healthy family, making an impact on the world, or even just having extra spending money when the bills are paid. In the play "Death Of A Salesman," by Arthur Miller, the "American Dream" deals with prosperity, status, and being immortalized.Willy Loman, a hard worker aged to his sixties never accomplished this goal.

Willy's funeral was tiny as well as his talk. Willy's dreams were shallow and unlived even until his death.Success was part of Willy Loman's dream.
