“You are never too old to set another goal, or to dream a new dream.”
― C.S. Lewis
I have learned from this quote great things
Achieve success
Ambition for a man is a normal thing, and can go smoothly and easily, but without turning a blind eye to the difficulties that can be encountered while achieving it. But it is more difficult to achieve ambition for women because it faces social and family barriers.
Positive thinking
Ambition for men or women always means thinking about what is positive, because negative thinking deprives both sides of setting important goals. Nor is there an ambitious person who speaks negatively of his interests or against his interests. So ambition is to set the goal in mind, and then think positively about ways to achieve it.
Does not mean greed
Ambition means success, but greed means infringing on the rights of others or sabotaging their interests in order to achieve an individual purpose. Greed can harm others and deprive them of what they aspire to, for interventions that have no meaning other than stealing their efforts; for self-interest. If there are requirements for your ambition, there is a price you must pay to achieve this ambition; you should not say these statements:
First, I will not be able to do this or that because it is difficult
Aspirations cannot tie themselves to chains, or degrade their abilities with hard work. Ambition must convince itself that it can do one or the other. "Know that nothing comes easily or is easily achieved," said the study's experts. "Continuous efforts can lead to the goal."
Second, I'm not good enough to achieve this or that
If you say you're not good enough, this can lead to setbacks in both work and effort. If some things are also difficult, it means there are obstacles that you should try to overcome, otherwise you will become permeable, and therefore give up your goal, because the most successful people are not those who abandon their good and ambitious goals.
Third: I will not achieve my goal because of obstacles
Obstacles are challenges that need to be addressed, bearing in mind that there is a real pleasure when one faces a challenge to overcome them. For that, there must be determination if you want to succeed. Ambitious does not say that it can not achieve the ambitious goal because of obstacles, but will try to analyze what it faces in the form of challenges to be addressed. The sun is always bright, and the lack of rainfall; means the formation of the desert, as described by the study.
Fourth, people do not take me seriously
This is because you didn't take yourself seriously. This means, in the words of the study, the seriousness of the positions, and continue to follow the journey. If people see you seriously, and take things seriously, they will take you seriously, and respect your opinions.
Fifth: I will fail!
Failure is not bad in all its aspects. Every failure you experience can be a valuable lesson for you to walk on the road to success. Aspirations never say that they will fail, and if they do fail; other attempts to succeed can be made by calculating risks and knowing their strengths and weaknesses and analyzing them correctly.Ambitious women defy fear of failure by learning how to avoid it.
Sixth: I can not deal with the success achieved
This can happen if you feel arrogant, in which case your success can be wasted because vanity can be the line between continuing or stopping success. It will also keep others away from you.
Seventh: I will make mistakes
Ambitions are not afraid of making mistakes, and then correcting them. This depends to a large extent on the opinions of others what you are doing, some will say that your efforts to accomplish this or that is wrong. Listen and don't be afraid if there are mistakes.
Don't worry too much about others, because there are those who do not want to succeed for others, there are constructive criticisms that you must listen to, and there are destructive criticisms.
Be smart enough to distinguish between the two situations.
Eighth : I wait for the perfect opportunity to start
There are no perfect opportunities at all because everything depends on the circumstances. If the conditions are right, you can begin to achieve your goals. If you wait for the perfect opportunity, it may never come.
