Ambition.

Ambition.
Ambition can be friend or angel.
1t can ennoble or ruin.
1t can be a blessing or a curse.
Money can be put to high or base
purposes. So can ambition.
Every man above the level of animal
has in him some ambition, worthy or
unworthy.
webster thus defines ambition: AN
eager, sometimes an inordinate, de-
sire for prefermen., honor, superiority,
power or the attainment of some
thing.
The individual or the race without
vigorous, impelling ambition, stag
mates, sings and decays.
Few there are in this country with
out some ambition.
To be without ambition is to be
mentally dead.
But supreme care must be taken
that our ambition is not such as to
will us morally and spiritually. Am
bition may be likened to a spirited.
speedy horse. 1t can carry us over
much ground quickly IL we keep a
proper rein on it and guide it along
the road: but if given too much rein.
it is in danger of landing us in the
ditch.
Once having selected a creditable,
useful, worthwhile aim in life. then
ambition can become invaluable in
helping us to achieve that aim.
First make sure that you have
mapped out a worthy path. and then
start full steam ahead and keep up
full steam, permitting no bumps or
boulders to thwart you, in your
course. An ounce of energetically-
applied ambition is worth whole
headful of unusual genius.
Almost every one of Americas not
able enterprises are the fulfillment. of
some dynamic, far seeing mans am
billions.
Life without ambition would be as
tasteless as meat without salt.-Forbes
Magazine.
