The secret to growth is Determination. Be it personal or professional, when you are determined, you are sure to touch the pinnacle of success. Willpower helps resolve all obstacles in your path. With determination, even a physically challenged person can climb a mountain or write the highest examinations. Fortitude will help you grow and reach your highest potential. Domination, on the other hand, sows the seeds of collapse. When you dominate, you do not let others grow. But growth is never sustainable if those around you are not growing with you. Thus, when you dominate, you neither let others grow, nor can you improve yourself. So, do not dominate, be determined instead.
