Ambition: Can it be bred by anybody?

[The-DDR-Philosopher]

Ambition, can everyone possess it? Is it a emotion we breed by ourselves? Or is it based on external factors we encounter? We can ask the question if it is inherited or learned, but can we prove it?

Is it a simple state of mind or a complex state?

Why do some people have it but others dont?
Some people who don't have it, see no need for it. Is it a pyschological process you have to reach in order to feel it?

My colleague and I have been grappling with this subject lately. Im intrested to hear some thought provoking statements on this topic.
