The Ambition Equation: Balancing Passion, Purpose, and Practicality

What does ambition look like to you?Does it mean owning the best school in your city? Expanding your center? Retiring early?Maybe it's none of those things… and that's okay.Contrary to what we're made to believe, there's more than one charted path to success. Your destination can be whatever you want it to be—and the journey to get there can look however you want it to.What's more, how you define ambition may change over time.While you can achieve extraordinary greatness in multiple domains of your life, you won't be able to do it all at once. It's going to work in seasons, and it's up to you to decide what's worth pursuing at any given time.How do you make that decision? That's what I'm discussing on this week's podcast episode. Together, we'll explore what ambition is to you and how you can achieve greatness in all areas of your life.Join me for a conversation about:The definition of ambition and what it looks like to different peopleWhy we get stuck on one view of successHow different seasons influence your priorities and possibilitiesHow to decide which goals to pursue<br/>Learn more and apply for the Director’s Inner Circle & Owner’s HQ: http://Chanie.me/jointhedic  .
