Now that we are well into 2022, we are making headway on our countdown to spring. Imagine the feel of warm air breezes, more daylight hours, birds in song, flowing water, etc. This is all right around the corner. For many places in the Northern Hemisphere we are experiencing incredibly cold temperatures alongside going to work in the dark and coming home in the dark. With that said, this is the time of year I like to give the gentle reminder about persistence. You may have set a New Year’s Resolution or maybe not, most of us are working on something. Whatever that something is remember the following:
per·sist·ence
/pərˈsistəns/
firm or obstinate continuance in a course of action in spite of difficulty or opposition.
“companies must have patience and persistence, but the rewards are there”
Reaching your goal will always mean bending, shifting and learning how to do somethings different- the outcome can be the same but the roads taken different.
For example in my own schedule my swims have been cancelled for the last two sessions this week- beyond my control. Winter storms this weekend left us without power for a day, house temperature went down to 7 degrees. It was a great house cleaning weekend and I watched the most expensive movie from the 80’s ever- streaming. It was unexpected and different and I still managed to get different workouts in from indoors.
