Determination is defined as” the ability to keep trying”, and to keep moving towards a goal, no matter what.

It is in getting back up no matter how many times we fall down.

People who have mastered determination are not necessarily people who have never failed, or even those who have failed many times.

People with determination are those who get up and keep going, who learn from what went wrong and adjust course, and who believe in themselves despite all obstacles.

The difference between eventual success and failure can be a true sense of determination.

Our daily life demands small doses of determination at every twist and turn.

For every decision we make, there is always an option that seems easier, that will take us away from our goal.

Determination is not always beating a giant with a single strike – it’s the day to day focus to do the tough things first!

Here are some wise quotes on determination from those who have learned what it is, and who have harnessed its strength to achieve their definition of success.
