We have to set an intention to make an action, and that intention is to do something often more. That’s ambition.
So we have to think in our lives… What is it I am ambitious about? What do I want to accomplish? What things need to change?
Everything starts with ambition, and if we don’t have clarity about what it is that we want, we can’t change. No goals, no growth. No clarity, no change.
Also never limit your ambitions based on your current competencies. Never limit yourself today based on your current inadequacies, because those can be irrelevant tomorrow. The main thing is to have aim in life, to have your own aim, your own ambitions, not the ambitions somebody told you that you should have or someone told you that you’re supposed to be after.
The highest forms of all ambition usually come down to:
Your Creative Expression
What is it you want to create in this world and get your hands dirty doing?
Your Contribution
What is your ambition to give and to serve greatly for others? What do you really want to give back or give to others?
Your Connection with Others
The ultimate ambition and aim to have is your relationships. To operate and to have a love that knows no bounds, a love that is extraordinary and amazing. You can’t improve your relationship with your family or your spouse or those that you serve, unless you have in some sense about you, the desire to love or give or connect more.
You deserve something extraordinary in your life, but at first, you have to want it.
