I know career motivation and encouragement up the ladder of success have their place in the world. But I don't want them anywhere near my spirituality.

I want to have my desperate need for personal success shrunk, not enlarged.

" Your life is only worth; what you think its worth living for? What do you think?" Dawayne A White

Do not sit still; start moving now. In the beginning, you may not go in the direction you want, but as long as you are moving, you are creating alternatives and possibilities.

There is no greater encouragement, motivation, or empowering force than that of unwavering faith that has locked arms with unfailing enthusiasm in a person's life. Find these in whatever you aspire to do in your life and you will find success. (c)

The term 'personal ambition' immediately puts me off. It feels like finding a sliver of onion in my ice cream. There's nothing wrong with a sliver of onion, but I don't want it in my ice cream.
