Activating Your Ambition seems an odd title for a book because the word “ambition” usually sends an image of selfishness to our brains.
However in actual fact there are two main definitions of the word “ambition”.
One definition does describe the power hungry individual we tend to visualize when we hear the word.
Aspire to fulfill your dreams:
The second definition is one that should describe you and me. This describes a person who has aspirations to fulfill their dreams. I am sure that this would describe you right? I certainly hope that you are pursing your life dreams.
This is what the book Activating Your Ambition is about. In fact the tag line of the book is what caught my attention when I first saw it in the store. It says: A guide to coaching the best out of yourself and others.
This is a goal of every true leader. To learn to bring out the best in him or herself and others.
A true leader motivates and coaches the best of out their team.
Mike Hawkins will inspire you to change, motivate you to climb higher and challenge you to bring out the best in your team.
This is a “must read” book for all who aspire to leadership or who are already fulfilling this important role in life. I am enjoying it very much. I am busy making notes as I read.
We all have a team:
Remember, your team does not have to be a sports team, a sales team or any business team. It may simply be your team at home (your family). This book will still provide motivation and practical tips that will show you how you can change your life and the life of those around you.
