“Individuals
make an era. An era doesn't make individuals.” ―Professor M.S. Rao
In one of the interviews, the host, Dr. Abraham Khoureis appreciated my drive and
defined its meaning. I was excited to hear the definition of the drive. Here
are my ideas and insights on ambition, motivation, and drive.
There
is a thin line separating ambition, motivation, and drive. Ambition is an innate
urge to accomplish your goals and objectives. Motivation is the ability to move
forward to accomplish your goals and objectives despite repeated setbacks and
failures. The drive is the ability to move forward to accomplish your goals and
objectives one after another without celebrating success. The people with drive
and motivation make a profound impact and leave their legacies to future
generations.
What
is Drive?
“The
highest reward for a man’s toil is not what he gets for it but what he becomes by
it.” ―John Ruskin
The
drive is the ability to move forward strategically and aggressively to accomplish
goals and objectives. People with drive move forward with their deep desire to
leave their impact in the world. They keep moving forward even when the going
gets tough. They are tough leaders with a task-oriented mindset. They mean
business. They are persistent and keep pushing themselves until they accomplish
their goals and objectives. They focus on their goals and objectives with
energy and enthusiasm. They rarely celebrate success.
Be
Driven and Celebrate Your Success
“Remember
to celebrate milestones as you prepare for the road ahead.” ―Nelson Mandela
Life
is short. So, make it sweet. Work hard, smart, and wise. Enjoy every moment of
your life. To conclude, be driven and celebrate your success to leave your
footprints.
“A
mind always employed is always happy. This is the true secret, the grand
recipe, for felicity.” ―Thomas Jefferson
