Ambition: Friend Or Foe?

I met Ambition about a year ago. Decent chap, but one you dare not get too close to. Ambition for me is synonymous with the downfall of Macbeth. It was this companion that led his life to spiral out of control. And I have always detested it, so much so that I refused to even be aquainted.

Breaking that ingrained perception, I tried to imbibe the better part of Ambition. The part that made me want to be that person - the person who has made a difference. And so I began to dream.

Last year I achieved things I never thought were possible. None were worldly achievements, but surely milestones in my own sphere. And I am at this point where I believe I can achieve anything I put my mind to.

There is an inter college management festival coming up. I've put my name down for all five sections of the festival, just carrying the knowledge that I can atleast attempt to achieve all that I wish to.

I am terrified of the concequences of walking with Ambition. There's a fine line that divides the right and the wrong in this corporate driven world.

Feet planted firmly on the 'right' side, I walk along with Ambition, but refuse to hold his hand for fear of getting pulled to the other side.
