Ambition 


When I read stories and biographies of successful people, I always notice that they have something in common. This thing is ambition. Knowing this motivates me to have this desire to become a successful person like them in the future. I did research on ambition and its importance in life. In this essay, I will talk about my findings and how to become an ambitious individual.


Ambition is a strong desire that encourages the achievement of goals. As for the goals and aspirations that are motivated by ambition, they require serious work. The path to these goals is difficult, and only people with ambition can achieve them. An ambitious person differs from others in his persistence. He doesn't care about negative comments from others, and always tries again after failure. An ambitious person depends on himself to achieve his goals. He does not take advantage of others, nor does he deny them after he becomes successful. On the other hand, when a person lacks ambition, his life gets tough. This may prevent him from having life goals in the first place. It may also lead to a boring life devoid of excitement, hard work, and success. Ambition has many personal and societal benefits. Ambition develops positive feelings and eliminates negative ones. It enables the individual to develop his skills and discover his talents. In addition, ambition makes the individual more interested in life, more confident in himself, and more optimistic. As a result, when people in a society are ambitious, it thrives and develops. It also becomes safe and productive.


Being ambitious may be easy, but maintaining it is hard. I understand very well that I will face many difficult times in life, which may threaten my ambition. However, I am ready to face and overcome them. This will be through believing in myself, and believing nothing is impossible with ambition and strong will.
