To my mind, every person has his own ambitions and I think it is not bad, because if a person wants to reach something in life, he must also have life principles, which make him decisive, strong, authoritative and more successful in life. But I think if a person is free from any ambitions, he is quite lazy and down-to-Earth person and can’t focus single-mindedly on is a future life. For my part, I have some ambitions in life, and of course some life principles, which make me tick instead of folding my hands, especially now in the time of financial worries and the horrendous economic situation in the country. So one of my ambitions is to get the higher education because I think it enables people to build their future career. My other ambition is to get profound knowledge and to gain a complete package of skills. I acknowledge the importance of higher education because this is the way to improve your chances of employment and to take off in life, as the competition for a decent job is extremely high now. I’m determined to find a rewarding, creative, demanding job, which will help me to realize my potential and to escape from the boredom of life. Hopefully, my future career won’t be a grey blur of tiredness, gloomy prospects and dreadful worries. I’m sure that my future job will never fail to please me. I’m ambitious of a proper job. So I’m both career- and money-oriented because nowadays money is a necessity rather than the luxury. I know that making a career has both advantages and disadvantages. As for as I know, every company is aimed at recruiting energetic, competent, mobile, sensible, sober and hardworking people, who are also ready to do overtime and to be committed to ensuring the efficient running of the company. This work will be very challenging, but rewarding. But on the other hand, it is no secret, that our family life may bar us from being employed, and we’ll always have to strike a balance between home and career. And I’m thrilled at this idea. Of course, people are different and their opinions vary. Some people may consider me too ambitious, but I want to achieve the best results, take advantage of every opportunity. I don’t know perhaps in the future I’ll change my mind and walk out of my job, because of my family. But now the main ambitions of mine are to get a higher education and to find a proper job. I owe this passionate interest in my future job to my parents and I hope it will bring me success, and fit into my family life rather than vanish into thin air.
