“Ambition can creep as well as soar”

Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes, when we think about ambition, we picture people achieving big goals quickly and dramatically. However, ambition isn't always about giant leaps. It can also be about small, careful steps that eventually reach the same big goals. Think of someone who wants to become a chef. They might start by cooking simple dishes at home, then get a job in a restaurant washing dishes, gradually learning by watching others, and slowly taking on more cooking tasks. Over time, these steady, smaller efforts lead them to become a skilled chef. Ambition can work quietly and persistently, not just in grand, noticeable ways. This means if you have a dream, you don't need to rush or make big moves all the time; consistent, small efforts can eventually lead you to success.
