The speaker reflects on their relationship with ambition, distinguishing between two types: one focused on driving projects to fruition and the other driven by ego and fear. They reject the notion of ambition arising from an intolerance for unhappy endings, attributing it to maturity and acceptance that life is ongoing. The speaker acknowledges using jealousy as a tool for self-reflection, identifying traits they admire in others. They describe categorizing their projects - books, zines, movies, shows - into different buckets on their computer to organize and prioritize their ambitions.
