My Ambition/ My aim in life

Ambition means aim or desire for one's future . Every person, a man or woman has one or
other ambition in life. It is always a good thing to have an without an ambition in one's life. A
man or woman without an ambition is really an unfortunate person. As it does not have any set
destination, it will reach no-where. Robert Browning says," The aim, if reached or not, makes
great the life".Therefore, an aim is very essential in one's life.

Different persons have different ambitions in their lives. It differs from man to man. Some
persons want to get wealth, others want to achieve fame still others want to do service to the
mankind. Some want to become doctors, while others want to become engineers. Some want
to become business men and others like to pursue a political career. Still others may like to
become lawyers.

My ambition of life is to become lawyers. I do not want wealth. I do not want to lead the
glamorous life of an actor. But I want to serve my country in a very humble capacity. I want to
educate my country men.I really feel that I can serve my fellowmen best by becoming a
teacher. This is in spite of the fact that teachers in our country are ill-paid. But money is not my
main motto in life.

A teacher is the real friend, philosopher and guide of the students. He serves the caution
of education. According to Plato education is the turning of the inner eye towards light .The
teacher removes the ignorance from the minds of his students . I want to realize the same
ideals in my life as a teacher for which great men like Socrates, Plato and Aristotle had worked
throughout their life.

I realize that if we are able to remove ignorance, illiteracy and superstitions from our
country, we can develop it into a great country. I possess the zeal of of a missionary for this
profession and I know that if I join it, the ambition of my life will be fulfilled greatly. I shall not
only teach my students the theoretical education but I would try my best to develop their
character.
