Becoming a Force of Persistence

You’ve done an excellent job so far defining what you want your life to be like and identifying the obstacles you had unknowingly allowed in your path. We all know how new obstacles and challenges tend to show up (even
after we’ve clarified what we want). For this reason, we must arm ourselves with the tools and understanding to overcome obstacles so they don’t become excuses for quitting.
Right now, define a powerful set of beliefs for yourself that you can call upon in your moments of need. Identify three core internal obstacles that often stand in your way. Perhaps you identify yourself as a procrastinator
and you put off taking action. Or maybe you tend to let fear guide your actions and decisions. List three of these personal limiting obstacles.
Next, in the form of affirmations, write down the attributes you are committed to that are aligned with your persistent spirit. For example, next to the procrastination obstacle you may write, “I am committed to achieving my objectives” or “I will see this through. I am guided toward my vision.” For the fear obstacle you can say, “I am bound by nothing. With persistence, I can achieve anything” or “With faith and courage, I persist until I succeed.”
Write them down in your journal and on a note card you can carry around with you. Remind yourself of your new affirmation every time you find your old obstacle presenting itself.
