I believe determination in its purest form stems from “ignited passion”.
There is a certain level of confidence and strength that must be present in order to maintain a determined disposition. It is not something we can fake. When we are passionate about something and believe in ourselves enough to move in the direction of our goals, we can wake up the human will and potential necessary to achieve our greatest dreams.
These three powerful human characteristics below can help us view our dreams and passions through a more hopeful determined lens.
我相信最纯粹的坚定源自“燃烧的激情”。
为了保持坚定的性格,少不了相当程度的信心和力量。这一点我们无法伪装。当我们对某事充满激情,又足够相信自己能向着目标前进,我们就能够唤醒实现最伟大梦想所必需的人类意志和潜能。
以下三种强大的人类性格可以帮助我们通过更大的希望和决心来看我们的梦想和激情。
Resiliency恢复能力
The human spirit is strong and resilient, and can overcome some of the most tragic circumstances. There are countless stories, historical and current, in which people have faced unthinkable challenges and yet they carry on. They are somehow willing to tap into something deep inside themselves that keeps them moving forward. It is something we can draw on to overcome adversity and help us reach our dreams.
人類精神非常强大,且具有恢复能力,能克服某些最可怕的悲剧。不论是在历史上还是在当前,都有人面对难以想象的挑战却依旧向前,这种故事数不胜数。不论如何,他们不知怎的愿意发掘自身深处某种支持他们奋勇向前的力量。这种力量我们可以用来克服困难并帮助我们实现梦想。
Courage勇气
Some of the most rewarding learning experiences in my life have resulted from facing challenges that require courage and raw determination. For me, it isnt about winning or losing, or achieving a certain result. It is about refusing to stop in my tracks at the first sign of fear, and not allowing obstacles to prevent dreams from becoming a reality. In the end, it is about finding that inner strength we all have, and summoning the courage to align it with the things we are most passionate about.
我人生中得到的一些最宝贵的经验来自面对挑战,而要战胜挑战则需要勇气和纯粹的决心。对我来说,这无关胜负,或达到某个结果。与此相关的是,当第一丝恐惧出现时,我拒绝止步不前,不允许困难阻碍梦想成真。最终,与之有关的是,要找到我们都拥有的内在力量,鼓起勇气,让勇气与我们最热爱之事并行。
Permission许可
When we give ourselves permission to ignite the passion in our lives, and when we believe in ourselves regardless of the outcome, we give ourselves in turn one of the greatest gifts in life.
What would happen if you gave yourself the gift of looking at what some of your passions are?
当我们允许自己点燃内心的激情,当我们不论结果如何都相信自己,我们也就送给了自己最好的一份礼物。
如果你能集中精力于激情所在,且能将此作为礼物送给自己,会发生什么呢?
