Determination

• NEVER compare yourself to others! You won't go anywhere if you're gonna compare yourself to others,the only thing you can compare yourself to is your past accomplishments and your future ones. If there's progress,then you should feel happy about yourself! 

• Never mind anyone doing the same thing as you,same goal,different motives. 

• Make sure the goal you're reaching is something worthy and lasts for a lifetime!

• Make sure the goal you're reaching is something to be proud of!

• Don't build your goals on false hopes or results like wealth,women,etc.. If you're going after something,you have to make what you want clear for yourself,use a paper and a pen if you have to! But DON'T EVER LIE to yourself! If you're going after a certain job just for the money you'll be paid for it and you don't even like it,you'll fail and you'll get bored Soon!

• Be ready for lots of ups and downs in your life. 

• Rest assured that God has the perfect thing for you in the end. 
• You gotta love what you're doing in order to succeed!  

These are not essential steps that you HAVE TO go by them but I'm just clarifying what I usually do in my life and that's the reason that pushed to write the whole blog! To share my personal experience which I find really comforting!

Maybe the whole article isn't clear but the following two REAL stories will do the whole job:

Vincent Van Gogh:

   Born in 1853,Van Gogh belonged to a rich family that took picture trading business as a profession in Europe. Back at his time,that kind of work is like movie producing nowadays. Rich and popular. However,due to some financial problems,Van Gogh was forced to drop out of school and work in London in his Uncle's company,but he soon got bored of all the 'classic' paintings he used to sell for the people.    One day,he was roaming around a village and sat on a rusty iron wheel to rest and it happens that he saw a miner coming out of a mine,all covered in black and tired but yet the miner is coming out,hands in pockets. Van Gogh got a pencil and a paper to draw that scene and another drawing of another miner coming out. When he got back home,he put both drawings infront of him to redraw them in which it took him a very long time and in the end he tore the drawing for not liking it.  Van Gogh suddenly felt that he should draw! He used to go to the mine every single day to look at the miners there and draw what he saw and sometimes he had to tear some drawings again! But this time,he managed to hold on to drawing as his new hobby and job! Vincent grew more confident and believed in himself. He started dedicating his time to art lessons,books and he even got into an arts college!   Although he died at a very young age with a few paintings,his paintings were considered priceless and rare!

Bill Gates:

• "I'll be a millionaire by the time I'm 30,I can do anything I can put my mind into" -Bill Gates to his school teachers. 
   Bill found out about his passion towards programming during his early educational stages and he started writing computer programs at the age of 13 when he met his partner Paul Allen who shared with him his passion!   The two young partners knew that the upcoming age is an age of technology and information,therefore,they established a company and Bill wasn't older than 14!    Bill went to Harvard college and during his studies,he developed a copy of the 'Basic' programming language. The real thing blasted in 1974 along with Paul Allen where they developed a basic programming language which was a turning a point in laptops! The beginning of 'Microsoft'. Bill Gates was a manager by the time he was 21.    Bill Gates managed to KILL EVERY SINGLE THOUGHT that big ideas come only from philosophers and academics achievements. He is the modern technology miracle! 

   When we look at those two and then back to ourselves,we aren't much different than them,you know. They both lived in different centuries and they both found their passion and what they want to do in their lives and they never moaned about any ups or downs in their lives! They started working right away to achieve their goals.
