I started reading this awesome book this morning, Ambition Is Not a Dirty Word: A Woman’s Guide to Earning Her Worth and Achieving Her Dreams. Here’s a quote:

“The cornerstone of your capacity to live a life with few regrets is laid when you truly understand, on a visceral level, the importance of loving your work—and earning your worth—no matter where you are in your life and career, and no matter what competing obligations and pressures challenge your resolve to be true to your ambition. Living fully and authentically hinges on your ability to stay connected to the experience of lifelong passion for your work, to remain continually inspired, to stretch, to be open to fresh opportunities, and ultimately to be the best you can at what you do.

Simply put, your ambition should be nonnegotiable. It fuels the core of your being.”

Love it! If that strikes a cord, I recommend buying it:
