For now I know one of the greatest principles of success; if I persist long enough I will win.
Og Mandino, The Greatest Salesman In The World, p.47
Wow!
I woke up today and did my daily reading for 60 minutes, did my affirmations, spoke my DMP out loud with unbridled enthusiasm and then failed miserably as a parent.
No matter how hard I tried I could not get my 5 year old daughter to listen and get dressed so she could go to preschool.
After over half an hour I just gave up and quit and called her school to tell them my daughter would not make it to school.
My frustrations lately with parenting are at an all time high and it just seems to get more intense with each passing week.
My daily sit in absolute stillness for 15 minutes was an oasis in the middle of a dessert for this exhausted parent.
As I work harder on myself each day than I do on my job, I realize I do have the power to achieve my definite major purpose, but for some reason I end up feeling like the biggest failure in the world as a parent.
We began a new scroll today in The Greatest Salesman In The World by Og Mandino and it states emphatically that if I will just persist long enough, I will win.
These words are nourishment for my soul after a challenging day parenting and achieving my definite major purpose one day at a time.
Stay tuned for some really exciting news next week as we discover some life changing knowledge and wisdom this week in The Master Key Experience.
Cheering you on David as you embrace your Hero’s journey one day, one moment, at a time, including your interactions with your amazing daughter. You are getting some great hands on practice with persistence.
