Wow.

Determination. Commitment. Drive. Passion. Enthusiasm. Strength. Courage. Willpower. Faith. Resolve. Perseverance. Confidence. Fighter.

These words? Well, they are ever so much more than just words. they....are so important when going through life. They are almost... a way of life. These words are characteristics and qualities that I see in different people.

When I see these qualities in a person.. I am literally blown away. Maybe it's because I lack these things sometimes. All I know, is that when I see someone who shows determination and commitment and perseverance and drive and resolve and ALL these things.. I am 100% impressed.

Every Single Time.

People like this inspire me. It doesn't matter if they were a great historical figure or a family member or even just a friend. Of course there have been some not so fantastic people with all these qualities.. but I'm not talking about them. I'm talking about the ones who do it to serve others and to ultimately further the kingdom of God by doing everything for the honor and glory of Him. These people make me want to be like them in their eagerness and zeal.
If they are striving to fulfill a goal... and if they do it for God? Yeah. They're a winner in my book.

So when you're down on life...whatever the struggle is... find the determination and drive to resolve the situation and make it better. Have confidence in yourself because you have the strength of the Lord on your side. Have faith and enthusiasm and be passionate about what you are trying to accomplish. Stay committed to making life better. If you fall back down, be courageous. Be a fighter and stand right back up. It may be difficult, but every single person has the willpower to persevere through absolutely anything.

And remember. Make sure you always smiling. Always.
