Perseverance – Day 4

April 25, 2019


“I know my limitations,” a friend said. “Point me in a direction, and I’ll just keep walking no matter what.” Maybe we could take a minute and evaluate what we’re moving toward?

Inventory Focus: Have you ever tried to do the impossible in your life, like trying to control someone else’s behavior instead of gaining manageability of yourself? Ever done the same thing over and over, even though what you were doing will never work? See! You already know how to persevere. Take a moment. Decide to make this trait work for you. Persevere at applying chosen values in your life.

From the book: 52 Weeks of Conscious Contact
