The popular narrative of ambition defines it as coming from a place of scarcity, and that leads to guilt over seeming thankless or wanting more than we have. True ambition ideally comes from a place of abundance, which means being ambitious in ‘doing’ and ‘being’ but being content in ‘having’.

Be content with what you have.

Rejoice in the way things are.

When you recognize nothing is lacking,

all the world belongs to you.
