When difficult situations come our way, we generally are not able to be confident of our success. So although there is a chance to do something, we are not able to give our best. Each new situation is perceived as a threat. Once fear creeps in, the situation further worsens and all chances of success are gone. When we are determined we become confident of our success. With this confidence we are able to do everything necessary till we succeed. We never let go off anything half way, but see to it that the task is completed. With every obstacle our determination further increases, thus enabling us to progress at every step. So we find ourselves getting better and better and there is success for us constantly.
~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.
