REDEFINING
AMBITION AND
SUCCESS
period in our history will help to show that you dont need
the traits traditionally associated with ambition. Being
ruthless, cutthroat and hard wont serve you as a person
or your well being, and wont benefit humanity.

embrace all the time.

You might get the impression from social media and the
media at large that success is about wanting certain
things, but you dont have to choose them too. You can
choose something else.
Remember, its your life, your way. That means theres
no need to compare and compete. When youre true to
being you, you wont need to. Once you click into what
you really desire, youll be excited about getting there,
and that will make you a happier person to be with
so youll attract new people, new opportunities and, of
course, success.

Ask Yourself
Who do you associate ambition with what sort of person is this? What do you have in common
with this person?
What did ambition mean to you when you bought this book? What does it mean
to you now?
Can you begin to formulate what you desire in different areas of your life?
If you could rewrite the definitions of ambition and success to suit you, how would these definitions
reflect who you are?
