Over-ambitiousness: An Apathetic Anxiety in Artifice

Success comes to those who really work out for that. Success is not a goal or destination; rather it is a process for a product. Here question comes, “whether we do earnestly aim to get-set-go or we are only madly biased for it having been badly suffered with the so-called identity crisis?” Too much sadistically getting serious for aiming at the ambitions of life or over ambitiousness in nature naturally invites undesired anxiety of mind which is a common life-style problem.

Valour or vigour of our mental state get provoked by its vulnerability and a human-brain symptomatically starts retiring ambition. Ambition should not bring anxiety. Ambition should not be abstract or ambiguous; rather it should be supported by practical affordability and natural availability. Logically our mind may be aiming for a sort or fort. Sometimes a creative mind, a talented person gets hypothetical utopian or get violent to get the success that he or she has desired for. In this case there is a chance compromising with his her moral or ethical integrity, character, culture, family, society, etc. So, expectations of mind or dreams should be well-designed with all required abilities or assistance for the dame.

A world famous philosopher-Johnson divides ‘ambition’ into two categories: intrinsic and extrinsic. The intrinsic people are highly value-oriented, they believe in themselves, plan according to their supporting credentials. Whereas the extrinsic category of people, those who are being admired, recognised by others, they are more likely to deal with fame, wealth and power. The intrinsic people have more critical thinking skills, self-analysis while setting their goals; but the extrinsic people are motivated by emotions, provocations of the time and situation. In this way ambitious id good for a human being by nature but to be overambitious is highly sensitive, risky, and troublesome.

The 21st century individual or society (in the form of family, community, political party, social organizations, institutions, or country are emotionally anxious for passionately getting their targeted needful, objective, victory or success by defeating their counterpart, violating the set disciplines, ideologies and not respecting the dignity of others. In this case, the person or people get undesirably ambitious. They are having sick mind of getting provoked by jealousy, intolerance, undue competition, etc. Thus, the negative traits of mind are often suffered from anxiety. They desire more, they get lost by the frustration, stress or insanity resulting from failure or not getting the goal by hook or by crook.

Many people without knowing the reality of fact, without proper guidance, with a virtuous or honest objectivity, not following the practical art of living may hinder with many life style problems. Unidentifiably they love their passion without a mighty mission. They get self-oriented without practising the mutual respectfulness, broad outlook, optimistic planning, etc, they are diagnosed as psychologically sick and they barely need psychiatric counselling. They often lose their patience for losing their track or get frustrated for something or other. They have to rightly go by their type of goal and should be justly oriented by spiritualistic pragmatism with a proper understanding of pragmatic ambition of life.
