Examine the
endurance aspect of endurance, its expression and intensity.
Everyone has willpower and determination. We have the capacity to
endure much more than we can imagine, and to prevail under the most
trying of circumstances.
Ask yourself: Is my behavior erratic? Am I inconsistent and
unreliable? Since I have will and determination, why am I so
mercurial? Am I afraid of accessing my endurance and committing? Do
I fear being trapped by my commitment? If yes, why? Is it a reaction
to some past trauma? Instead of cultivating endurance in healthy
areas, have I developed a capacity for endurance of unhealthy
experiences? Do I endure more pain than pleasure? Do I underestimate
my capacity to endure?
Exercise for the day: Commit yourself to developing a new
good habit.
