Persist + Resist
from FOF Gym Chat · host Kenzie and Josh Presnell
Today's episode is 100% inspired by a quote a I read in Ryan Holiday's book, The Obstacle is the Way. It’s a quote from Epictetus. It’s says, “Persist and resist". Persist in your efforts. Resist giving into distraction, discouragement, and disorder.” Persist. Resist. Persist. Resist. I hope that after listening to this episode, those words become powerful reminders for you. They are such an easy and great reminder to keep going when things get tough, to be creative in your efforts, to think outside the box, and to just keep stepping forward, despite how small the steps feel. For me, they also serve as a great reminder to turn away from those things that will steal my joy, halt my efforts, and eventually cause me to become so angry and bitter at myself and the world around me that I just quit. Enjoy!
