Determination is the engine which drives perseverance. But the beginning of it all is commitment.

Bortier from Ballarat, September 30, 2013

Yes I agree that determination is the ability to keep pushing no matter what. However, this is the same as addiction. knowing when to yield is just as important as determination in my opinion. A strong mind can also be a mind that cannot change direction for the better when needed. The current of determination is good if not tainted with ignorance.

Josie from Brisbane Austraia, December 9, 2012

It's really awesome!

Brooke, sua história é muito bonita e admirável

Anderson de Sousa Almeida from Colatina, November 15, 2012

Stopping at nothing, And doing what's in your heart, You know is right, ...means determination

Mahesh from Chennai ,India, July 26, 2012

Determination is the act of not feeling sorry for oneself, because if we do then negative & destructive thinking & emotions will take control. Our Creator expects to less because we were created in his Image. Brooke has the determination but a strong will to succeed despite her problems, a great example to the rest of us.

keenpetite from Southeast Arizona, February 18, 2012

Determination is the ability to keep pushing no matter what obstacles are put in your path, a single person with a purpose and the determination to accomplish such a task is a force to be reckoned with, a force that once going, cannot easily be stopped.
