Personal ambition is the desire or motivation of you as an individual to achieve something that usually goes beyond where you are or are now. It is a deep-rooted motivation that drives someone to improve themselves, develop new skills and take on challenges to achieve personal growth. In other words, it is a goal-oriented drive that drives you to surpass yourself and set higher goals. So you keep raising the bar.
Personal ambition is not just about striving for success or status, but also about fulfilling your personal vision (or mission) that gives you meaning and satisfaction. Personal ambition thus gives direction to choices and decisions in your life. And it helps you to overcome obstacles and persevere, even when the road is difficult or even seems impassable.
Within the ICR approach, a challenging personal ambition that is integrated with the strength of the entrepreneur, in short the entrepreneurial ambition, is the starting point for successful entrepreneurship. This involves a clearly defined, inspiring, and ambitious goal that goes beyond typical business objectives. It focuses on a future achievement that surpasses what seems possible. The entire ICR approach is designed to make the impossible possible with a well-thought-out structure and organization. First better, then bigger!
The importance of a challenging ambition for an entrepreneur with their own business cannot be overstated. It serves as a guiding compass that determines the course of the company and directs its growth. It enables the entrepreneur to have a clear vision of where the company should go and what needs to be achieved in the long term.
However, this challenge is not only relevant to the business itself but also to the personal ambition of the entrepreneur. It helps the entrepreneur integrate their personal vision and goals with those of the company. By setting an ambitious goal that goes beyond current capabilities and performance, the entrepreneur is challenged to bring out the best in themselves and to grow personally.
This is more than just a business goal. It is a vision that energizes, motivates, and inspires the entrepreneur. It ensures that the entrepreneur works with passion and determination every day to achieve the set goals. It also helps attract and retain talented employees, as they are inspired by the higher purpose and eager to contribute to something greater than themselves.
Last but not least, a challenging ambition acts as a benchmark for success. It allows the entrepreneur and team to assess the company's progress and performance, and to make necessary adjustments or steer the strategy and operations accordingly. It provides focused direction and priority to the company's efforts. This, in turn, enables the entrepreneur to determine which activities and opportunities truly contribute to achieving the ultimate goal (read: the challenging ambition).
