Ambition is
what keeps you going. Even when you seem to fail, you get up, dust yourself off
and attempt once more to achieve. Though your goal may change, your aspiration
will enable you to tackle any obstacles that may be in your way.
At this point
in time, I aspire to become a forensic psychologist. My ambition motivates me
to work hard and achieve the necessary results needed to reach my goal.
However, if you had asked me ten years ago what I aspired to be, I probably
would have said a ballerina or a vet.
As you grow
older, people influence you, your knowledge expands and new opportunities
arise. These factors tend to cause a change of heart. We all have a long list
of things we currently want or previously wanted to accomplish. This list is
forever changing and expanding but the desire to achieve remains constant. This
desire is ambition.
