In recent years, there has been growing interest in the relationship between equality and personal achievement. Some people believe that individuals can achieve more in egalitarian societies. Others believe that high levels of personal achievement are possible only if individuals are free to succeed or fail according to their individual merits. What is your view of the relationship between equality and personal success

Nowadays, it is believed that people tend to be more successful in egalitarian societies, while others believe that achieving high levels is only possible if human beings are free to succeed or fail according to their personal merits. In my opinion, it is necessary to have equality in order to give all

individuals

equal possibilities to achieve their full potential and

this

way they will be able to free succeed in society. To start with, it is a matter of fact that personal accomplishments are possible if

individuals

are free to succeed or fail according to their effort and pursue their goals.

This

is called Meritocracy, where people develop themselves and have achievements because of their effort. To illustrate

this

, when someone tries to enter the University and studied hard for that and pass the exam. It is was through their merit of passing and being there.

This

would be perfect if all humans had the same rights in

.

However

,

this

is not the reality in most of the countries in the world.

For instance

, Brazil was the

last

country worldwide to abolish slavery in 1888, which means the African descendants were left with no support, no income and illiterate.

This

was three previous generations from the actual one, which still does not have the same access to education, good schools and

consequently

high job positions.

Therefore

,

this

is hard to be based in a meritocratic society when

individuals

from the same population do not have the same access to basic rights

such

as education. To conclude, the idea of people being free to pursue their personal achievements freely and through their merits would work if we have an egalitarian society where all

individuals

have the same chances of achievements.

Thus

, prosperous societies will give opportunities to everyone equally.
