American Dream Connections Project

Logan Brooke Dalton

Characteristics

In the film, Chris uses his characteristics to succeed and follow his American Dream.

Determination

Chris had determination to succeed and that is why he did. No matter how many people told him that he was not going to be able to sell the bone scanners he kept trying. He had doctors tell him no and he still kept going because he knew that he could prove them all wrong and that's why he succeeded.

Chris had the courage to get back up when someone tried to break him down. He had the courage to never give up even if he didn't have the right clothes or a shower the night before. He had courage to overcome anything.

Courage

Chris succeeded because he had faith that he was going to overcome the challenges that he was facing. He had faith that no matter what happened he would get him and his family through it.

When Chris tried the last shelter and they told him they could only take his son and he said ¨no we have to stay together¨. Chris knew that they would take care of him but he also knew that without his son he would give up.
