Persistence and its Challenges

Introduction
In the journey of life, on the way to achieving your set goals, fulfilling your dreams and actualizing your vision or purpose

The journey is never a smooth road, it's not a dash without hurdles, it's a marathon that takes long hours, days, months and years

It takes you through valleys, deserts, hills and marshy places before you can get to the place of success

There's therefore need for you to be prepared with the necessary resources for the journey

In this series tonight, I'll be speaking on one of the major resources you need, the challenges that come against it on the way and what you must have to overcome the challenges

What's Persistence?
Persistence is the unwavering commitment and determination to achieve a goal, regardless of challenges, setbacks, or obstacles that may arise along the way.

It is the ability to keep pushing forward, maintaining focus, and putting in consistent effort until the desired outcome is achieved.

Persistence is not just about working hard; it's about having the resilience to endure hardships

Why should I develop it?

The importance of persistence cannot be overstated.

It is often the key factor that differentiates between success and failure.

Many great achievements throughout history can be attributed to individuals who refused to give up in the face of adversity.

If you don't want to remain or die in obscurity
If you don't want to live an unfulfilled life
If you don't want to die without fulfilling your Purpose in life

Then you must develop Persistence

What are the challenges of Persistence?

There are basically three challenges I'll be discussing about tonight

1. Distraction - this comes when your attention is drawn away from something you're focusing on. In this case, your vision or purpose is your focus and gaze, but with the noise in the world, distraction comes easily

2. Discouragement - is the feeling of despair in the face of obstacles. There are various obstacles on the way to fulfilling your Purpose, when you always get to the state in which you lose hope, you begin to get discouraged
The down time in the economy of your country may drive you into the state of discouragement

3. Doubt - this is the state being unsure of something. If you're not sure of being able to actualize your dreams, you subscribe to doubt

To overcome these challenges, you must develop the following

1. Focus - you must develop an unwavering and unswerving focus on your goals, vision and purpose

2. Fearlessness - fear attacks everyone but you must learn to defeat it by doing that which you fear

3. Faith - your vision or purpose came from the Most Powerful Source, which is God, you must therefore be connected to Him for you to overcome the challenge of fulfilling your Purpose in life
