What is ambition?

- Ambition is the thing that keeps you up at night.
- It’s the next day’s schedule. You know tomorrow is going to suck because you have maybe two free hours in the hole day. You have to jump out of bed, wash the cat litter out of your mouth, inhale coffee, negotiate terrible drivers, deal with your unimaginative and highly annoying co-workers, get to that parent teacher meeting, zoom your doctor about that rash under your right testicle, look into the eyes of your lover for at least ten minutes lest you want Jerome looking into a whole different eye in the near future…
- It’s that ever present dark cloud that is making you very very sad.
- Until you finish the schedule. Then the clouds part and the moon shines down on you in the dark because it’s midnight and it’s time to think about the next days schedule…
- Ambition is the thing that keeps you up at night.
