Determination

"The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in a person's determination." ~Tommy Lasorda 

Wow! This feels foreign! It's been awhile since I've wrote a post on this blog! For those of you who may have been waiting, sorry for the delay, but I'm finally back with another post. The topic? DETERMINATION. Some people have it naturally, some people don't, but don't worry, it's one character trait that's totally attainable.

I've always been the type of person that once I make up mind to do something, there's no stopping me. I'm going to at the very least give it a try. Whether I win or lose, succeed or fail, that's not the point, the point is I TRIED. I'm not perfect and everything in this life isn't for me, but I was raised with the old saying, "nothing beats a failure but a try." So I've got the natural determination to give it shot, see it through and see what the end will be. Not everyone has that. Some people start something and if it looks like there may be any possible sign of failure, they quit almost as soon as they started. No determination. It's sad really because there's so many things that could be achieved if only the determination was there to stick with it! Some things aren't going to be easy, there may be ups and downs, but determination very often, if not always, pays off! Now like I mentioned before, whether you were born with it or not, determination is something you can easily get. Hmmm... maybe I shouldn't say easy, but believe me, it's attainable. So you may be asking, what's the secret? There is no secret. It's pretty simple and straight forward. All you have to do is not quit. Easier said than done  I know, but that's really all there is to it. Everything isn't meant for you but you'll never know if you don't give it a try and have the determination to stick it through. So try, try, and try again, stick with your goals and DON'T GIVE UP! BE DETERMINED!
