Persistence

Well, this morning during my sit I was starting to feel like I had stalled out on my growth. I attempted to shake myself out of it so I shook my head and went back to my visualization exercise.  Last week the visualization was more difficult for me.  I never did "see" the cone with my eyes open.  I always had to close my eyes to just see the outline. I began to wonder, am I feeling like I am not progressing because my old blueprint is acting up again?  Or, have I just plateaued for a little bit before my next growth spurt? I related this to working out because I know for me when I am working out I make progress and then I plateau, I make more progress and I plateau.  I have to change up my workouts exactly the way that we are changing up how we present information to the subby.  On Sunday's call, Mark talked a lot about persistence and Scroll III this month is all about persistence.  Hummmm... I wonder if the universe is trying to tell me something. We had a light dusting of snow the night before.  I went out to my car in the morning to go to work and I couldn't help but notice that the rose is still trying to bloom.  Talk about persistence!! How can I do any less?  [pullquote align="normal" cite="Og Mandino"]Always will I take another step.  If that is of no avail I will take another, and yet another.  In truth, one step at a time is not too difficult...I will persist until I succeed.[/pullquote]
