The Power of Determination

Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try.

There is nobody on the face of this planet who got something without first making the decision to try. It may seem scary at first, but you can do it.

So remember, when you're too scared to take a step forward, the only place you're going in life is backwards! I hope this video inspired you to take the next step forward to your goals.

    This clip increased my vibration in a way that inspired me to move forward. I think the classical music and the scenes helped to do that, I felt myself become "overwhelmed" and tears formed in my eyes, thank you it's exactly what I needed.

    I have some determination but not as strong as the girl in the video who confronted that beast.

    Faith or Fear. When we feel fear it just means that we're human, that we're about to grow beyond our comfort zone and into greater arenas. Choose Faith

    Everyone is afraid od the unknown, one don't know what to expect the from one moment to the next. The situation is unstable.

    I found this very unusual and a good depiction of the hesitation we feel before trying a new direction. Thanks.

    Congratulations__ !
    I found this to be a very powerful moving and inspiring clip. Many times in reflection; my fears are in reality; just an illusion of my own perception__ !
    The challenge for me is to empower my belief system and then in turn_ myself confidence level.
    I believe the very first step is truly to identify my deepest inner goals, desires, and merge them in a clear vision of direction.
    With this vision_ it's truly now time to fly and break-loose and enjoy_ ! As this women symbolically did and truly live life in all of its abundance’s and beauties on all levels in life freely . . .
    It's truly for all of us to enjoy in the freedoms and gifts we are blessed in with today__ !

    I would love to know what her thought was before she made the desicion to run into the wolf rather than away so many of us have faced our wolves and gone around the wolf or avoided the wolf rather than face the wolf and run towards it. I get it but the desicion wasn't made before the thought changed her and the face gives you the feeling that was changed next came her action to run. Which direction do I choose full speed ahead.

    Actually no one can learn without trying.But ensure scuess , there should be goal setting and flexible planing.

    Once we decide to face our fears.........then there is nothing to fear.

    I am the shyest person ever to walk the earth.
    AND, I am the wolf! It is part of my totem.
    I came to a place in my life when I realized I had no fear. Sometimes fear is a good thing. It might be called common sense.

    Oh, it's soo difficult. I'am packed with fear, that I am doing something wrong, people just wanna use me or just take from me. I have little trust in good people generally. Are you honest?

    This should be termed the power of imgination,why cos the moment she saw the wolf she has to act fast and by acting fast means put all fears behind your mind and use the will power,its a do and die affair

    So true! and always so easy as soon as we start moving forward. I wished we would be more in this awareness when we do not dare to step forward that it is easy and it feels great, that this is the only way to live life to the fullest with joy and happiness.

    I think also the person has to prepare to take the stage, 1st place, the dive. What is missing is the preparation needed to succeed.

    Very powerful illustration of how to face our fears, we must all learn to take the first step in order to move forward, by choosing to take the first step, we are in a way accepting all the challenges we face, all the fears we must overcome, we embrace the changes that we will encounter, for in all of this we as individuals choose to overcome all our fears every time we take a step forward, by doing so we embrace every fear that restraints us, our biggest fear is how we as people move every day that decides whether we succeed or fail.

    FEAR is what we feel before the leap and FAITH is knowing our fall will be cushioned though we cant say how........WONDERFUL.....
