In the award winning song “9 to 5,” Dolly Parton complains about her 9 to 5 job, something she believes should not be her only ambition. Instead of settling for her “9 to 5” job, Parton believes her work should be about having aspirations to guide her in her professional life. Parton sings about “[pouring herself] a cup of ambition” before work. Every morning, she gives herself a reason to be motivated for work. Parton is determined to be successful at her job even though “the boss won’t seem to let [her].” Her boss is a hindrance and could “drive [her] crazy”, yet Parton will not let that fact stop her from reaching her goal because she is ambitious. It is important for people to have ambition. One of my personal goals at this moment is to find an educational focus that I can be ambitious about. A couple of months ago I thought the area of study I was heading towards was math; however, I found myself unenthusiastic about what I was learning and without any ambitions to help lead me. So I made the decision to search for a new direction. I would like to focus on something related to behavioral sciences. I have yet to decide on a major, but I am determined to find it.
