Lessons from Marcus Garvey: Lesson 4 Be Ambitious

"AMBITION is the desire to go forward and improve one's condition. It is a burning flame that lights up the life of the individual and makes him see himself in another state. To be ambitious is to be great in mind and soul; to want that which is worthwhile and strive for it; and to go on without without looking back, reaching to that which gives satisfaction."-Marcus Garvey
