Determination*

My topic for this morning: Determination.

Having determination is something that is looked up to in life, it shows that you will succeed in anything you do. It's a positive personal character trait. Being a determined individual means knowing what you want. If there is something a person wants to do, he or she will not give up easily or get distracted by something else. But then there are other times where a person may have a goal to do something, but then the task seems more difficult than he or she thought it would be. In turn, they then weighs the desire to achieve the goal versus the work required and decide to quit. Some people jump from one thing to another, without even completing what they started, which seems as if they aren't very determined to achieve their goal. Some people give up too easily. If we fixate on a purpose; know what we want and why we want it, that purpose will help drive our determinism. If you are determined to achieve a worthwhile goal, you will reap the rewards; a feeling of satisfaction and achievement.

So everyone make a goal for yourself today! Don't give up! Stay in that positive mindset :)
