Where Does Dedication Come From?

Have you ever wondered where a person’s dedication comes from?

Dedication can be summed up into daily habits or behaviors that you get into every day. With a little time put into these habits, you can become a dedicated person yourself.

Of course, it won’t be easy, but it’s only a matter of knowing where your dedication comes from.

If you aren’t so sure about that, here are a few questions you might want to ask yourself:

What do you find passion in?

Dedicated people know what they want, as they are always striving to get it.

Now ask yourself, what pushes YOU forward? Do you happen to be passionate about something so strongly that you would fight until the end for it?

Hold on to that feeling of passion, it will get you farther than you think!

Do you believe in yourself?

It’s one thing to know what you’re passionate about, but it’s another thing to know you’ll be pursuing it in the first place.

Do you really believe that you can follow through with what you’re dedicated to until the end? If you can answer positively to that, you’ll find the very source of your dedication.

Do you have a plan?

Dedicated people don’t just pursue the goals they set, they also have a plan to do so.

If you want the dedication to achieve your dreams, you need to know where to begin and what your endgame is. Make sure your plan includes just how exactly you’re going to achieve your goals with small but detailed steps to know your priorities.

Chasing your dream without a plan is like floating across the ocean without a sail, you’ll get somewhere, but not where you really need to be.

Are you willing to commit?

The road towards achieving what you want will never be a smooth one.

If you’re willing to really commit to this though, to brave all the hardships that are waiting for you as you walk the path toward your dreams and come out standing tall at the end of it all then your dedication stems from your determination to reach your goals no matter what.

Dedicated people are willing to make the sacrifices needed in order to achieve their goals and never falter no matter what misfortunes, hardships, and general bad luck fall upon them.



Do you know now where your dedication lies? Is it in your passion? Your belief system? A failsafe plan? A general willingness to commit?

Regardless of where you think it comes from, know that each person’s drive is unique to each of us and that we all strive to reach for our dreams at our own pace.
