We hope that you are feeling inspired to investigate your dreams, and that above all you feel confident that it's possible to make them happen. We're not claiming that you will achieve success only by doing x, y, z because there are no magic formulas. Our philosophy is based on enjoying the process of discovering what makes you happy and feels right for you. It's natural for everyone to want something different, something better, something more – this is what makes us human beings. Ambition comes in many forms, and so definitions of success will vary. What's important is that you find your unique definition of success, based on the way you want to live your life. Then your ambition to make this happen will have the right impetus.

What next? You will be looking within to match your personality, strengths and talents with your dreams. Life isn't just about work, so these dreams will include all aspects of life. Then you can proceed with the process in between of making it all happen. That's healthy ambition.

We've provided you with the tools to be your own analyst and coach. Through our coaching questions and tests you can discover what you have and what you want. With the latest scientific research that we've given you, you'll be able to make informed evaluations of where you're at, and with our expert panel's advice you have the top-level guidance for the journey to your success.

Perhaps you have got to this point having read the book slowly, answering the questions and completing the tests; or you may have read everything with the intention of going back to complete the questions and tests. You may even have read random chapters with the titles that resonated first. We don't insist there is a right way of going about it. Starting with this book, you can choose your own process of mastering what you need to learn to achieve your fulfilled life.

The one thing we do believe is that ambition isn't something that can be picked up whenever someone decides they have more time. Creating your successful life means living the desire to do so on a daily basis. However you choose to do this is up to you, and we hope this book has given you plenty of advice so that you can confidently fuel your desires every day. Healthy ambition is about creating a fulfilled life, and a full life needs filling every day that we live.

You may have started reading this book thinking that ambition is about making a career happen, or that success = money. We've given you a new way to consider ambition and success. Healthy ambition isn't one dimensional – it's not just about the job or just about marriage or just about anything. So the next step is for you to create your blueprint of success and of course to take the practical steps of making your dreams in all dimensions of your life happen.

We wish you an exciting journey. Do let us know what your travels are like and where you arrive. We wish you all the best.
