so important.

may be expressed by many of the success/

and acquiring skills/ knowledge.
5. Determination is a positive personal
character trait.
A person with determination is someone
who is earnest or unwavering in his or

17. The Combination of
Visualization, Determination and Resilience
The combination of visualization,
determination and resilience is a powerful
alliance to attain results such as new
products, new ventures, new organizations
new processes, new inventions, new
concepts and more.
Together they ensure the attainment of
worthwhile goals in our personal lives, in an
organization, in a country and in the world as
whole.
18. The Combination of
Visualization, Determination and Resilience
A sure way to attain your goals is to enlist three powerful
forces, namely, visualization, determination and resilience.
Visualization entails the ability to cast the end result
of the goal into vivid images of final reality. The
accomplished goal can be seen in great detail. The results
flowing from the accomplished goal become visible. The
visual picture becomes the guiding light at the end of the
road to the goal.
Determination starts with the decision to go for the
goal, to make the commitment to attain the goal.
Determination is also the continuous driving force to
overcome the obstacles on the way to the destination. It
focuses the mind on the end result. It strengthens the will
to carry on to arrive at the destination. It fuels the fire in
the belly.
19. The Combination of
Visualization, Determination and Resilience
Resilience is essential to dismantle or to get around
the barriers in the road to goal attainment. Resilience is
the ability to be creative, to deal with impediments, to
make a plan, to solve a difficult situation and to cope
with adversity. It also entails the ability to be flexible and
adaptable to handle changing circumstances and still
keep the goal in mind. A resilient person has an inner
buoyancy to bounce back after a setback.
20. People of mediocre ability sometimes
achieve outstanding success because
they do not know when to quit. Most
men succeed because they are
determined to.
21. The capabilities needed to become self-
determined are most effectively learned
through real-world experience, which
inherently involves taking risks, making
mistakes, and reflecting on outcomes.
These experiences help a young person test his
or her strengths and limitations and identify
appropriate short- and long-term goals.
How Is Self-Determination Learned?
22. Drive and determination are powerful
allies in helping people to work hard and
achieve cherished ambitions.
You can rev up your inner drive by
thinking positively, setting goals and
reading inspiring biographies.
Taking action, even if it is only completing one small daily
task in pursuit of your dreams, is effective, because it
increases energy and motivation.
23. Determination provides you with a strong
force which helps you to conquer your
fears. Many talents fail in this world
because they do not have the strong
determination required for success.
It is very difficult to succeed if you do
not have determination.
24. Your level of determination is a key
factor in your success.
You were born to
success!
