I agree that ambition is a positive and desirable trait in a person. When people have ambition, it helps them get things done the way they want it. Ambitious people are inspired by the outcomes of the things that they want, and they strive to achieve it. People with great ambition work hard and don't expect anyone to do the work for them. I admire their independence and work ethic and believe that it is a great trait for someone to have.
I neither agree or disagree that people that are in a position of power are happy. This statement depends on who you're talking about. Some people strive and live off of power. People who are power hungry like this are most likely happy in a position of power and are happy to be in charge. Other people who are in power desire to live a normal life and not making decisions all the time. They have to strong urge to be the boss and would rather someone else do it.
You make some great points. I have similar thoughts to each of these. Good post.
