2017.02.11

Key Words

characteristic：trait； character；quality; attribute; personality; factor

success: achievement; accomplishment; triumph

Regarding different culture context, ambition is considered as either lust and curse or drive and passion largely depending on the conservative or progressive tradition of a certain country. This essay will discuss the beneficial and detrimental aspects of ambitious personality as well as it’s correlation to success.

The positive side of ambition is obvious, since it paves the way to great achievement. Ambition is an essential quality of any leader. In the field of business or politics, the strong will to win is so much greater than any other characteristics simply because an individual will do whatever he can to surpass the limits, motivate his greatest passion to elbow the way to the destination.

What’s more, the public tend to believe in people with strong will. The result of American presidential campaign is just the illustration of this. The surprising result of Donald Trump’s triumph showed the power of ambitious character. Except for leadership, ambition drives any youngster to achieve their dream; they dream big and employed by their passion, not pension. Artist, scientist, and educator are just the cases.

However,in its negative sense, ambition is the pursuit of personal status and fortune. There is nothing wrong about fighting for one’s ideal life, unless other people are invaded as the ambitious individual is greedy, ruthless. Besides, too much ambition is detrimental when it gets to the point where you trying to harm the public.

Such examples can be seen in both literature works and real life, such as Macbeth- the slave of his ambition. The fact that Macbeth reaches such a great accomplishment and high standing, yet he is unsatisfied portrays Macbeth's over-ambitious nature. The corrupt nature of unrestrained ambition clouds one's ability to think and act rationally, leading to hazardous consequences.

Although ambition is needed to achieve one's goal, too much of it can be extremely negative. However, as I consider, if people can harness his own ambition, it can be of great help to success.
