Acharya Prashant addresses a question about ambition, stating that it is a very important and life-changing topic. He begins by emphasizing that each person has their own unique life to live, and what fulfills one person cannot fulfill another. He cautions against the idea of finding fulfillment by reaching a place someone else has reached, as we are all born differently. He expresses skepticism towards so-called "success stories" and the concept of role models. He questions whether the people who are touted as successful are truly fulfilled. He points out that the public image of these individuals is often a heavily curated and edited narrative, showing only what they want to show. We do not know their inner state or if they have truly reached a place of worth. He highlights the hypocrisy often seen when these role models are involved in suicides, tax evasion, or other crimes, which contradicts their projected image of success. He argues that we are often gullible to believe these carefully crafted stories without questioning them. Acharya Prashant defines ambition as essentially a large desire. A small desire is just a want, but when it becomes big enough, it is called ambition. He traces the origin of all desires, including ambition, to our animalistic, biological conditioning. He compares the human ambition to conquer land to a dog's instinct to mark its territory. He equates the desire for more wealth, power, and partners to the same animalistic drive seen in our ancestors in the jungle. He asserts that living by this old, borrowed script is not living a new or fresh life. He contrasts the energy derived from ambition with the energy that comes from love. The energy from ambition is cyclical, leading to moments of motivation followed by demotivation, which then requires another "motivation pill." He asks if it's possible to live a life fueled by the energy of love, where one acts out of fulfillment in the present moment, rather than chasing an imagined fulfillment in the future. He urges young people to be free from external influences and to question their own thoughts and emotions, recognizing that they often come from the conditioned world and are not truly their own. The most important value, he concludes, is the freedom of the mind and the liberty of consciousness.
