Why I need you to be more ambitious
3 reasons why I need you to be more ambitious...
Society needs you

Our children need you
Women if we don't show our children how to be ambitious we are going to be leaving our world full of people who are not living up to their potential.

Your future self needs you to.
"At the end of the day, you can decide whether you want to be an employee with a great attendance record, getting promoted to ever better titles and working on interesting projects or whether you want to attempt to do something spectacular. This be or do should be a question you never stop asking yourself for the next 20 years and beyond."
-- Steve Blank, University of Minnesota, 2013
When you look back on your life, you want to feel like you have lived! Don't waste too many years of your life living in a world that belongs to someone else. Set goals, reach them, and set new ones. Make this your world and make it a better place for the future. Your future self is relying on you.
While your living ambitiously don't forget to stop and create intentional relationships!
While your living ambitiously make friends on the way! I was talking with a woman at my favorite restaurant who has aged beautifully, what she advised my friend and I was to make sure we made friends and kept them. She said to invest in your friendships because once you reach old age, that is all you have. The beautiful woman spoke wonderfully of her neighbor who had her over for dinners and called her to say hi throughout the week. She said, if she didn't have that she would be alone and no one would even be there to check on her. Friends are important for men and women. Make them, forgive them, trust them, and most of all, love them.
