Ambition

Are you an ambitious person?

Writers have to be ambitious. It takes diligence to get from "Once upon a time" to "the end".

Dictionary.com says this about ambitious.

Many people say they could write a book, but few do. Not always for a lack of ambition, but a lack of time or maybe talent.

I consider myself ambitious. I have a self-published book, an independent film production company, and a side marketing consulting business.

I can do it. I have done it. I intend to continue to do it. Now it is a matter of making it a priority.

This all keeps me from sitting in front of the TV, playing video games, and even solitaire.
