If you are in a position of power you are happy- This statement stood out to me because I at first I was like no, you usually are not happy. But then I began to think about it more and decided that there is not a black or white answer to this statement. I would agree and disagree. I think that the process of power strongly plays a role in the happinness factor. Usually when someone wins a postion of power they are thrilled, but as the process gies on harships can pop up and the happiness can subside. I also think that the person plays a major role in whether or not they will be happy. I know that for me, because I am pretty shy, I don't usually like being in a postion of power. Someone who is very outgoing may feel otherwise. Many different situations have different feelings for the person who is in power and all different types of facotrs go into decided if that person will be happy.
Ambition is a positive, desirable trait in a person- I would agree with this statement. Yes, there are a few situations in which the ambition could be bad if it was overpowering or too much. But, for the most part ambition is a great trait. Ambition is what gets people out of bed in the morning and brings them to try their best in things whuch may not be very exciting. I know that without my ambition I would probably not want to sudy and try as hard as I do. I also like seeing ambition in my friends and my peers. I like to people who are strongly passionate and motivated in the things which they do. This ambition inspires others and it usually brings good outcomes.
I agree that happiness can come with power but it can go away. I also agree that ambition is a great trait as long as it is not overpowering.
