Blind Ambition 

noun: When you forget to wear your glasses and you are walking around a public setting. You see your old flame . He/She says hello to you and you tell Him/Her to go fuck themselves. Later you realize that it was not your old flame that said hello and that he/she was talking to someone else behind you. The momentary blindness gave you the courage to say what you felt.

blind ambition 

Typically ambition is a good thing, it's something that drives you to achieve your goals and improve yourself.

But blind ambition is when someone becomes so fixated in their ambitions that they ignore everything and everyone around them. They become blinded by their own ambition, or at least inflicted with tunnel vision. This causes them to neglect taking care of themselves and their relationships.
(Three friends, Carl, Joe, and Rick talking, sitting at a diner table. Carl is extremely tired and his clothes are messy)

Carl: Don't... matter. Yeah... I spent... eh... 3 days straight... without sleep... renovating... my coffee shop... so what? I have ambitions... Joe... it's gonna be... the best coffee shop in the whole city!

Rick: Hey Carl, we've been calling you over the last few days and you haven't responded until now. I get that you're trying to improve your business, but you can't let your blind ambition destroy your life!

Carl: Hey... shut up... screw you... I'm not gonna... let you... get in... my way... of... *Carl slumps down and falls asleep on the table*
