Ambition<\/b> is the desire<\/a> for personal achievement<\/a>. It provides the motivation<\/a> and determination<\/a> necessary to achieve goals in life. Ambitious people<\/strong> seek to be the best at what they choose to do for attainment, power, or superiority. Ambition can also be defined as the object of this desire<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Acquired power can be wielded in the name of a vague or clear ideal<\/a> or multiple ideals. When ambition<\/strong> is used to seek a clear ideal, it develops a close relationship to extremism<\/a>. Throughout human history, many examples can be found of people<\/strong> who were extremely ambitious, for better and for worse. The notorious Greek Herostratus<\/a> had the ambition<\/strong> to become famous by destroying the Temple of Artemis<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Irish poet Oscar Wilde<\/a> said that "Ambition is the last refuge of failure."<\/i><\/p>\n

\u201cKeep away from those who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you believe that you too can become great.<\/a>\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAmbition is the path to success. Persistence is the vehicle you arrive in.<\/a>\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\" Bill Bradley quotes<\/a> (American<\/a> retired NBA Basketball Player<\/a> and Senator<\/a>, ran for President in 2000, b.1943<\/a>)<\/p>\n

\u201cNothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.<\/a>\u201d<\/p>\n
