  2. i am determined to make myself a better person and live a better life. i make a lot of mistakes on the way there, but i am trying very hard. i want to be someone that people like to be around and allow them to enjoy my company without me getting too paranoid or emotionally spastic. i am also determined to provide a child a better life than the one i am living on day, as i want to pass it on.

  4. I am determined to succeed. I am determined to be everything that I imagined I would be when I was little. I am determined to use every ounce of everything I have and make it MY life, not my dad’s, not my mom’s, not my best friend’s. I am determined to find love, find happiness, find real life.

    I am determined to be determined.

  5. Some days I wake up and I know exactly where I’m going. Left right left up then right again. I make it to the right spot every time. I know when to talk. When to listen. When to shake my head yes or know. It’s good.

  6. I am determined to become the type of person I want to be. I want to be a social worker. I want to be the type of person who plays cards with my parents each weekend. I want to be the type of person who doesn’t spend their life fearing what other people think. I don’t want to be the type of person who gets caught up in a guy, searching for love, expecting to find my Mr. Right. I want to be an independent woman. I am determined to be this type of person. I go outside of my comfort zone on everything, pushing myself to be somebody. My determination for this- to get what I want- makes people think I’m crazy. Girls don’t understand my determination to not search for a guy. They don’t understand my determination to be on my own and do my own thing. Maybe it’s because all they know are fairy tales. Maybe that’s because they only know romantic love. I only know the love I have for my family and friends. I am determined for that to be enough.

  7. i was determined. it was the only word that could descirbe my complete and total i was the kind of person people would stay away from in high school because of my determination- sure i had my close friends, but i never felt the need to have any social nteractions because my only goal was to get to college. i could deal with the rest later.

  8. Getting up in the morning when you know you’re going to be knocked down. Doing something when you know it won’t matter to those who matter most to you. Being someone who nobody else is telling you to be. Trying even when others say you will fail. And then trying again after you do.

  9. He was determined to do it right this time. Not like last time, when it all went to hell. He would do it right-take care of business, no one would ever know, in and out before anyone could blink. He owed to them to get it done. She would be gone before the night was over.

  10. I am determined to live a good life. I am determined to look back on all this and smile. I am determined to get where ever the fuck I want to be. I am determined to be happy. My determination gets me through. I am determined.

  11. determination is the only way tasks ever become completed. but where does determination come from? does it come from within? is it in humans nature to want to succeed, something stemming from determination and perserverence? can you teach determination or

  12. Cool night air falls over the purple hills and down to the flatlands below. We had determined to cover 12 miles or more by sundown. Our tracker knew of a large waterhole not far, perhaps several hours away. I took the lead horse and slowly walked ahead of the group. The Lieutenant made constant checks of his compass.

  14. I want to be determined to succeed no matter how I look. Yes, I have a buzz cut and ten piercings and I look like a butch lesbian with two tattoos but I swear to god I’m going to graduate college with honors because I’m smart enough to do so. Smart enough to prove you wrong. I know myself. I’m strong. I’m determined.

  15. I am determined to live life the way I want to, and not what society tells me. I have the determination to accomplish the goals that I see as beneficial to my inner being. My determination will get me where I need to go, when I need to be there, with no skin off my back. This is the first time I finished what I wanted to write before time was up :)

  17. Jensen was determined to make it to Hastings Rock before sundown. The ash-snow had deepened to nearly 8 inches, which make going tough. Once he got to the road that led off of the ridge, things got better. He looked down as he stepped on the road and saw a pair of footprints. Too big to be a child’s, too small to be a man’s.

  18. no questions asked they’re on a mission. not gonna back down. no way, no how. thats right. not waiting for what we’ve got to say, we’re not them. it’s their life and they’ll do as they please. they’ve got direction.

  19. I was always so determined to grow up and then in high school I had an epiphany. I would never get any of this time back. Ever. So I stopped caring about growing up. Actually, it turned into quite the opposite. Now I’m determined to milk my life for all it’s worth.

  20. Jack was determined to make it through the day without barfing. It seems like a great goal on the surface. Not barfing is essential to the other goal in Jack’s life “looking cool”. If one does not look cool one can not get a girlfriend. If one doesn’t have a girlfriend than one is at a loss.

  21. i am feeling determined today because of all the negative things have been going on. i want to prove to people that i am much more talented and much more ambitious than what they saw today. i am determined to prove to people that they can see what i really am and what i really love

  22. fact is, can you ever be determined enough? i spent over an hour just trying to cut a v-shaped ridge in my big toenail. good news is, the numbness is leaving…

  23. Determined is a word for people who have a plan in life. Who are organized and understand the need to be responsible. It makes your life easier, and better.

  25. I am determined to figure out how to better live my life. I’ve spent my entire life trying to figure out where I am going and what I am doing. But I have always been determined to make this path for myself. I’ve had plans and goals and dreams, and now is the time that I put them into play. My determination will fuel me to get where I need to be, and it will help me succeed in my life. Someday, I will look back on this time and smile, saying “I did it.” I know I have the capability to.

  26. I imagine a little girl. She is frowning with concentration, focused on the task in front of her; kneading bread? breaking a stick? Planting a seed?

  28. I hated being the only one who didn’t think it was necessary. Even he did. But I didn’t think twice about it. Either way, I have no idea where I am going with this, so I might as well stop. I would’ve anyway because the time’s almost up…. :3 :3

  29. she was soo determined. her heart filled with every thought of what it would be like to win. to finnally be the best at something. she starts to slow down but her mind keeps saying to push even harder. 1 more mile left and her legs feel the pain rising. theres only one person in front of her and the last 25 miles have been trecherous but she stuough them, putting everthing she had into them. this marathon meant so much to her because if she won, she would get the grandpize, 500 dollars. it wasnt a lot but for her it was. her determination clogged up all her thoughts and all she could think about was running through the finish line, getting all the praise! eyes closed, she puts the pedal to the metal and off she goes, the last breath of air…. she won, but the last thing she felt was the cold sidewalk slammed against her body. the agonizing pain ripping through her, warm blood seemed to be pouring down her face. everthing seemed to be drifting off onto a black abliss. heart stilll pounding, waking up in a hospital bed… no recoglectioin of anything that had happend.

  30. I’m determined to achieve or ever just find a goal to follow. To dream, I’ve lost that sense of wonder that i love. I’m trying not to lose hope. I think I’ll make it, I know I’ll make it. I want to be wonderful. I am determined to find my happy place :-)

  31. i am a very determined person. determination means being able to do whatever you want because you have faith you can get it done and you believe in yourself. being determined is a way of life and it will get you very far, and you usually can get amazing jobs for being a determined person.

  32. I was determined to let it go
    let it slide
    let it snow
    let the rain
    spill away
    and walk so far
    walk today
    and the next
    til’ it was gone
    and sing a song
    from what i lost
    and what I knew
    to be true
    to let you go
    let you know

  33. Determined to reach his objective, the boy stretched farther. Straining, and nearly reaching a dangerous point of imbalance, he finally made it. His mother found him on the floor with a pile of boxes happily munching a cookie.

  34. Determination is an important part of life. I hate seeing people who lack motivation and never do anything, I can’t help but think “where are you even going to go in life??” i mean, jeez, doing your homework ISN”T that hard. C’mon guys,

  35. determined. wow. i was not expecting that word. hmm….well i think that determined is the will power to get through something. Like I am determined to get good grades, and I am determined to slim down. If we didn’t have determination, where would our world be?

  36. it wasn’t like she wanted to. she had to. she didn’t really have any feelings on the matter. get it done, get it done, get it done. and she did.

  37. Determined he was, the little bugger. He just wouldn’t leave me alone. I’d shoo him away, even threaten to kill him, coming very close to doing just that on more than one occasion, but yet he persisted. “Damn you, you stupid fly!” I yelled, finally getting up from my seat with rolled up magazine in hand, chasing him down. It was a long, grueling battle, but eventually I won, being more determined than him.

  38. The coin flipped off his knuckles. Which way to fall? Until now, the scruffy man in the well-worn parka was undecided. In a second, his choice would be determined. He watched the coin spin up, then down.

  39. Simon was detrminded to keep Lenore safe at any cost. She had to be protected even if she didn’t know why yet. Though he couldn’t exactly just follow her around all the time, she didn’t remember him from before so he had to rely on someone else that could get close to her more often then he’d be able to. That’s where Olivia came in.

  40. i am determined to be the person that will make me happy and also please God, i am determined to be happy and healthy and wonderful at what is good for me. to love and to have a good family.to be a good person and alway try and do what is right,, even if it’s not always fun, i’m determined that i won’t get any more sunburnt tomorrow and that i will get a puppy
