Ambition plays an important role in our daily life, because it is a guide for us to make decisions and choices. Question marks have been raised on what is ambition and what does it mean to us? According to Dictionary, Ambition is an earnest desire for some type of achievement or distinction, as power, honor, fame, or wealth, and the willingness to strive for its attainment. Personally, ambition is not simply a dream, it’s a kind of attitude towards life. It is a strong desire for distinction and recognition of achievement. That you should try your best efforts to gain it.
Most people have different ambitions in life. So, the word “ambition” would have a different meaning depending on whom you ask. Some may want to become extremely wealthy; some may want to have good fame in society; some may want to be what their parents expected to be; some may want to earn tremendous honor, and some one may want to have peaceful household. Various ambitions show their expectations. As for me I just want to achieve something that I always remember in my mind. I hope to be a healthy, positive, intelligent person. I could have magical powers to make people who is around me happy, give them hope, encouragement, and confidence to do. And I can have a stable job. Just do an ordinary person, that is my ambition. Also, I need pay off the strive.
I remember someone once said: We do not choose when to be born, we do not choose our parents… We do not ---most of us---choose to die, but within all this realm of choicelessness. We do choose how to live---couragaeously or in cowardice, honorably or dishonorably… So please let your ambition change your life.
In short, when you want to set a goal and do everything in your power to attain that goal. Do it bravely. At the same time, you should have a desire to learn, keep an open mind, know your limitations, and learn from your mistakes. Yet, never look at a mistake as a failure, a spot, instead take it as a chance to make it better, and remember that failure is the mother of success.Without an ambition we have no purpose in our lives.
