15. Here are a few

17.  a man who became
successful because he
mastered the art of
determination. He tried
over 5,000 times and failed
each time before he was
able to make the first light
bulb. He could have given
up after 3,000 or 4,000
tries, however, winners
never quit, and quitters
never win.

19.  Pensacola, Florida, used
determination when his back
was against the wall. Michael
was surfing when he was
bitten by a shark, in the
waters off the coast of the
Florida Panhandle, near
Pensacola. He started hitting
the shark with his surfboard.
He had the determination to
fight for his life under attack
and survived.

21. was born without half of his
right foot and only a stub right
arm. However, Tom used
determination to overcome his
limitations. Tom had a burning
desire to play football. His
parents had an artificial foot
made for him. It was made of
wood and shaped to fit into a
special football shoe. Hour
after hour, day after day, Tom
would practice kicking field
goals.

22. His
determination, drive, and
discipline led to long hours
of hard work. He became
very good at kicking field
goals at short distances.
Then he began to move back
further and further, scoring
field goals with the same
accuracy. His determination
landed him a job in the NFL
playing football for the New
Orleans Saints. There came
an opportunity

23. when the New Orleans Saints
needed Tom to make a 63-yard
field goal against the Detroit
Lions to win the game. If Tom
would make the field goal, it
would become in new record in
the NFL for the longest field goal
ever made. With time running
out in the fourth quarter, Tom
kicked the ball while 66,000 fans
were hollering and cheering. The
ball went up and went through
the goal-post to give New Orleans
a 19-17 win over Detroit, and
Tom Dempsey a new record.

24. The moral of the story is, never let someone
else place limitations on your potential.

25. With determination, you can become whatever
you want to be…
