The Law of Persistence

The Law of Persistence

 

The Law of Persistence states that the longer you hold a belief in your mind, the stronger it gets, and like the Law of Determination, Persistence states that your ability to endure through setbacks and adversity is a measure of the belief you have in yourself and in your ability to succeed.

 

So, why keep going if everything seems to be against you? Why the fight? 

I think in the back of your mind you know that God has called you to do and be something great. Along with that calling comes great opposition to the change of status of things. 

 

When you pursue your greatness, you disrupt the order of things. Everyone around you has a plan or expectation for you, to serve in their purposes and they’ll run you into the ground if you let them. When you start to say, “hey, I’m going in this direction”, now you have a problem. You're not playing the game the right way anymore. 

 

The thing you believe in MUST be backed by the faith you have in God, because He gave it to you, and yourself, because you are called to carry it out. 

 

“We plan the way we want to live, but only GOD makes us able to live it.”

Proverbs 16:9 MSG
