Is DETERMINATION always the best thing?

Have you ever wondered where determination will get you in life?

Well... I have.

I have noticed in the last couple of years I have tried to be perfect in many ways, but determination is the only thing that truly helps me along the way. I can remember last year walking into AP History 1 thinking," I'm going to die by the end of the year." Well now I have a different view on school in general.

I have always been a good student when it comes to academics, but my determination can also be my downfall. Have you ever wanted to do something so bad, and you didn't care what you sacrificed to do so? I noticed in the past year I have learned to deal with stress a lot more, which is a huge feat for me, but that doesn't stop me from getting stressed out to the point where I'm so exhausted that I mentally crash. Every time I feel like I'm going to finally have some time to myself; to hang out with my friends and have some spare time, it seems like something else happens to make that time disappear. So is determination really the best thing, even when it comes to driving yourself crazy?






I think maybe it is. Call me weird, but I think determination is the only thing that truly keeps everyone going. Determination is what makes us do something we want. Determination helps us beat the odds when we believe that there is no hope. Determination helps you accomplish a lot in life. So let me ask you this......





HOW DETERMINED ARE YOU?

It depends on what I'm doing! :P

If it's something I REALLY want to accomplish, then yes, I will have a blind determination towards that goal.

Determination is defenately one thing
us humans need to succeed, otherwise we'll get swept away by the obstacles.
