I Am Ambitious


I am ambitious.

I wonder about how I can become successful.

I hear the gentle whipser of the wind.

I see my name on the cover of magazines.

I want to be a successful novelist.

I am ambitious.

 

I pretend I am J.K. Rowling.

I feel like I can become anything I want to become.

I touch the hearts of people around me.

I worry about not being able to live up to my expectations.

I cry when I fall short of my goals.

I am ambitious.

 

I understand the road is rough.

I say that success takes time and dedication.

I dream of seeing my novels lining the shelves in book stores.

I try to write down my ideas for future novels.

I hope I can surpass my expectations.

I am ambitious.
