Sometimes you need to fail to see how you can build off that failure to have a brighter successful future!
Sometimes things go wrong so you can prevent it from happening again, short term it seems bad but you'll be thankful in a long term view.

One instance of irony or juxtaposition that exsits in our society towards reaching the American Dream is that many dreamers go to college to graduate in a specific major that they would like to eventually work in. However, many dreamers graduate with the degree they intend to obtain on the major they wanted and don’t even end up working in that specific field.

America claims to be the worlds highest standard of living and success, yet for the most part many people living in America, working towards the American dream are mainly poor/middle class and it’s a struggle to even provide for our basic needs at times.

One instance of irony or juxtaposition that exists in our society towards achieving The American Dream is how we will never really achieve this american dream because its what we make out of it it isn't the same dream that was in the 1920s. The 1920 illustrates that its all wealth and education but they didn't have to work for it some of them inherited it and they were able to live the ''american dream ''' by not doing any work,
One example of irony is, that higher social classes are more respected rather than lower classes. The more the money you have, the more power.

I find the American Dream to be ironic because everyone wants to chase it and have it. But many don’t know what they are chasing for or what it is.

One example of irony that exist in today’s world about the American dream is the fact that the American dream is all about being successful and having living the best life and having money but America is one of the hardest places to have economic mobility. How can u move up in society and become successful to achieve the “American dream” when America itself is not easy place to make it in.

One example of irony is ....We are taught that we must excel in our academics and go to a known college in order to have a better job in the future. But a lot of times it's not what you know, but who you know, that will get you the job.

Sometimes you need to struggle to accomplish your dreams. For example having many failures in your life will eventually lead to success. If you work really hard you will get what you want. Failing exams will help you reflect and teach you new strategies and skills that you can use

One example of Irony in the American Dream is that you are told that people’s judgement of you does not matter but in many aspects of life you are judged and taken into account based on the numbers you recieved in school that will not always bring justice to the amount of potential each and every unique individual obtains.

One example of irony or juxtaposition that exists in our society in attempting to achieve The American Dream is sometimes you need to fail in order to succeed. Juxtaposition shows two complete opposites and failure and success are two opposites. In life failing at your goals will give you endurance and perseverance.

One example of irony is when you work toward a dream you hope to achieve or become. When you reach your dream you become proud of your accomplishments and how hard you work to get there.
One example of irony that exists in our society about achieving the American Dream is failure has to be dealt with before success. A winner is always a loser first. People tend to forget that and try to succeed as much as possible, they're afraid of the down fall.

In our generation everyone wants to achieve their American Dream without the dedication to work for it. Many people have a dream of something they can’t achieve or maybe some can achieve but then again some people are not willing to go to the extent to fight for what they want and only some have the potential.

An example of irony is having to fail in order to learn. Many time people have to learn from their own mistakes in order to be successful. There is a chance you can learn from others mistakes but some people may feel that just because someone else fails at something doesn’t mean it could happen to me, and this could either go wrong because they didn’t look at the other persons mistakes or it could work for them. In order to succeed at times there must be a fail.
