Determination Quotes
Decision and determination are the engineer and fireman of our train to opportunity and success. Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated failures. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. Don't let go of your dreams. If you have determination and belief in your dreams, you will succeed in spite of your desire to let go. The only good luck many great men ever had was being born with the ability and determination to overcome bad luck. Nothing great will ever be achieved without great mean, and men are great only if they are determined to be so. Never go backward. Attempt, and do it with all your might. Determination is power. A failure establishes only this, that our determination to succeed was not strong enough. I've always found that anything worth achieving will always have obstacles in the way and you've got to have that drive and determination to overcome those obstacles on route to whatever it is that you want to accomplish. A dream doesn't become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work. But I'm good to go through my contract with Childress, and my determination is to win races and try to win that other championship. Every worthwhile accomplishment, big or little, has its stages of drudgery and triumph; a beginning, a struggle and a victory. Physical weakness is not true weakness. True weakness is that of a soul. People of mediocre ability sometimes achieve outstanding success because they don't know when to quit. Most men succeed because they are determined to. There is nothing which any way pertaineth to the worship of God left to the determination of human laws. You've got to get up every morning with determination if you're going to go to bed with satisfaction. Some men succeed because they are destined to, but most men succeed because they are determined to. I never expect to lose. Even when I’m the underdog, I still prepare a victory speech. Let us not be content to wait and see what will happen, but give us the determination to make the right things happen. If a person goes to his job with a firm determination to give of himself the best of which he is capable, that job no matter what it is takes on dignity and importance. We will either find a way, or make one!
To all the positions, I just bring the determination to win. Me being an unselfish player, I think that can carry on to my teammates. When you have one of the best players on the court being unselfish, I think that transfers to the other players. Churchill was the canny political animal, very devious, bursting with energy and determination, learning as hard as he could. Where the willingness is great, the difficulties cannot be great. The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy. Desire is the key to motivation, but it's determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal - a commitment to excellence - that will enable you to attain the success you seek. The spirit and determination of the people to chart their own destiny is the greatest power for good in human affairs. Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it. My message to you all is of hope, courage and confidence. Let us mobilize all our resources in a systematic and organized way and tackle the grave issues that confront us with grim determination and discipline worthy of a great nation. So long as there is breath in me, that long will I persist. For now I know one of the greatest principles of success; If I persist long enough I will win. At an unprecedented time with the worst attack ever on our soil, our President displayed extraordinary determination, leadership and resolve when history was thrust upon him and the United States. The longer I live, the more I am certain that the great difference between the great and the insignificant, its energy - invincible determination - a purpose once fixed, and then death or victory. At present, our country needs women's idealism and determination, perhaps more in politics than anywhere else. We must remember that one determined person can make a significant difference, and that a small group of determined people can change the course of history. I am not discouraged, because every wrong attempt discarded is another step forward. An invincible determination can accomplish almost anything and in this lies the great distinction between great men and little men. Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude. The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in a person's determination. The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lackof knowledge, but rather a lack in will. The spirit, the will to win, and the will to excel are the things that endure. These qualities are so much more important than the events that occur. The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand. Somehow I can't believe that there are any heights that can't be scaled by a man who knows the secrets of making dreams come true. This special secret, it seems to me, can be summarized in four C s. They are curiosity, confidence, courage, and constancy, and the greatest of all is confidence. When you believe in a thing, believe in it all the way, implicitly and unquestionable. Most people never run far enough on their first wind to find out if they've got a second. Give your dreams all you've got and you'll be amazed at the energy that comes out of you. Others can stop you temporarily - you are the only one who can do it permanently.
