From a materialist point of view preferably, at the level of the brain, what is ambition? determination? Theres so many interesting things that i want to learn about, it excites me to think about them, but when i actually do them, the feeling either loses its flavor after a while or i can't even bring myself to do them in the first place. I could have accomplished so much in the time i've been alive, i could have learned so many new things, but when it boils down to it, after working 40 hours a week, i always tend to lean towards fruitless entertainment to take up my time, IE, videogames, movies, or even just sitting there being apathetic. Whats the difference between me and the millionaire teenager who builds his own company from scratch? Why do some people have more ambition than others?
