How ambitious are you?
Are you ambitious? A little? Much? If you are a woman, there is a good chance that the word ambitious makes you a little or very uncomfortable even in 2006. And the sad fact is, if you view ambition negatively, it will most surely affect the level of success you will achieve.
As long as you view ambition as selfish or bad, you make it very difficult for yourself to put what is truly important for yourself at the top of your list of priorities.
Ambition varies. Someone's ambition may be to find a 6 figure income. Someone else's may be to get a 4 day week job so that she may spend time developing her painting skills or spending more time with her children or reading to her heart's content. And it takes as much courage to declare we want less money and more time as it does to want the CEO position.
What is truly important for you? Are you giving your honoring what you truly want?
Make this week memorable. Make one declaration of ambition:
"What I want for myself is _____________________________. To achieve it, I will______________________, by _________________(date).
