  1. I am determined to be the best person I can be. Determination assures that difficult tasks get accomplished. Even when things are hard, or seemingly impossible, determination helps us succeed. When someone is determined, no obstacle can stop them. Never has someone who is determined been deterred.

  2. I am determined to break out of my self defeating behavior and to walk in God’s light/way. Determined is what it takes to do anything in life. Determination gets you to where you want to be. It takes determination to have a relationship, to get a job, to keep a job, to follow the 10 commandments, to do a simple act of kindness. Determination is the same as faith.

  3. It was early on that I deterimined that I had a disposition for contact sports. I think I recognized this about myself after I tackled the nurse delivering me. From that point forward it was rolling boulders onto small animals and drunken bumper cars. I cant imagine life without a daily push, punch, or a wiffle bat to the kneee.

  4. she was determined to go towards the closed door down the hallway. she never dared to be before which was why this was such a big deal for her. the other girls behind her were snickering and betting with each other wether or not she would do it. a flashback of her mom apperaed towards her eyes and she hesitated for a moments. took one big deep breath of the sour air and took the one step past the doorway. she did it!

  7. She glared at him, her eyes burning behind those thick lashes of hers, and he raised his eyebrows. “Yes?” his expression said, though the actual movement of his lips would have required far too much effort for someone like her. “Yes, and how do you think you’re going to prove yourself?”

    She was slight, far too thin to be a proper warrior, far too underfed to be much of anything but a problem. Then again, she was pretty. He supposed he could make this work. There was a reason, after all, he was the youngest Commander in the country.

  8. Usually i’m quite determined not to get sucked into one of these spontanious efforts but sometimes it seems that I’m determined to fail! I can never determine which will happen?

  11. Sweat, tears, and an endless amount of strength. This is what katya packed as she prepared for her three month long trek through the heart of the Amazon jungle. Nestled between exotic fish and sweet smelling trees lies a society, a people yet to be tou hed by the flaming firme of the spirit of God. And yes, this was what she needed to reach them. Thankfully, the endless supply of strength was easy to come by.

    Abby Jensen
  12. I am determined to reach my goals, I am determined to read more books. I am determined to make my life better and things better. Because if I’m determined things will get better, won’t they? Of course they will, because I’m determined.

Since the usual ways were not working, she stopped calling, stopped e mailing and decided to give herself a month during which he would have time to miss her, think about her, want her as much as she wanted him. She did not think it would be so hard.

  16. I am supposed to be a business woman, so why don’t I act like one? I say I aspire to become many things after university when there’s only one thing I want- success. But I want to be able to write every day and to read. I like to read and I miss it- so why don’t I? I’m too full of laziness and journals. So many journals and referencing but I want to make the most of university life. It’s difficult when everyone else is an over achiever and I’m just achieving.

  17. you are determined when you know exactly what to say, when you are not afraid of letting people know who you are and what you feel. Be determined: do what you want say what you feel because those who mind dont matter and those who matter dont mind. Be determined and trust yourself and love yourself. Be determined and make others trust in you and believe in your thinking. Be decisive and precise.

  20. Keeping the mind
    on the morning rain
    determined not to let it go
    not to fall beyond the window glass
    not to let it seep
    behind the eyebrows
    into the face just finished
    hot and ready
    for the day

    Annabelle Lee

  30. After twenty-one years, a lot of taking in and letting out, as my memories serve me, the starting five years forgotten, I have come to determine that the first five years of my life might possible have been the best, I understood the least, everyone took care of me, I was in bliss of ignorance, and the most what I miss is the crying and yelling when I felt like, which might have been to others but sure as hell I got off without being shouted at. Based on that I have determined that Benjamin Button is one-lucky-in-a-‘special’ way bastard!

  35. I have no clue how the date was determined … it absolutely could not be worse! Why did they have to hold their dinner on the same night that I was holding mine? Not that either one really matters, but the same people are invited, for heaven’s sake! Not cancelling, that is for sure.

  36. you are only as determined as you thing you are. it’s more than just floating around on your life raft and hoeing someone will save you. it’s not standing up and screaming into the black until someone hears you. It’s standing up and dancing until you laugh and don’t care so much that you are on a raft alone in the middle of the ocean.

  37. Determined

    determined,
    Insistent,
    constantly there.
    looking for love,
    where no body cares.

    Determined to see threw,
    all the lies.
    Determined to find out,
    what everyone hides.

    Determined to show them,
    who you really are.
    Determined to love them,
    near or far…

    Determined to reach out,
    prove that you care.
    Determined to stop fighting,
    everywhere…

    Determined to cure,
    the aching heart.
    Determined to fix,
    that which has been torn apart.

    Awake but dreaming,
    in a sleepless state.
    determined to move on,
    before its too late.

    Determined to live,
    determined to die.
    Determined to silence,
    this voice inside.

    Determined to write,
    and determined to share.

    ‘Cause I am determined,
    to enlighten those everywhere

    Open your eyes,
    to a world so cold.
    lift the vial,
    and break the mold.

  40. It was red and in her size. Emily pushed her way through the frenzy of bargain hunters and firmly gripped the hanger. ‘This dress will, at last, be mine’ she thought with relief. Unfortunately, as she tried to lift the hanger off the rail, another determined hand held on just as tightly from the heaving morass of shoppers on the other side of the rail. The hand wore a distinctive diamond ring. Emily’s heart sank as she realised she was in a tussle with Louise Melchett, her boss.
