Steadfast
To be steadfast is to be unwavering, solid, loyal, dependable, strong, faithful, and resolute. These attributes apply across a broad spectrum of life; including the collective and communal activities of day to day living, as well as it’s personal and interpersonal processes.
“Remember that in every single case in history the process of adaptation has been one of exceeding slowness. Do not look for the impossible, but do not let your path deviate from the quiet and steadfast insistence on full opportunities for your powers.” ~Franz Boas
Without the capacity for steadfastness we stand on unstable ground. Making decisions, making commitments, living an authentic life drifts into a fog of unattainability.
“When I had no place to live and I had no place go to sleep-and I did sleep in the Metro-I held steadfast to the fact that I had a dream, a reason why I’m doing this…that it was bigger than this moment.” ~Jeremy Scott
Self-actualization demands us to be steadfast. Achieving a harmonious and balanced life requires commitment, faith and resolute determination.
“I have a very steadfast tendency to parent myself, to monitor my development into the person I want to be. I’ve tried to keep the corruption minimal.” ~Fiona Apple
“Wealth stays with us a little moment if at all: only our characters are steadfast, not our gold.” ~Euripides
This week I invite you to to continue walking the steadfast path in the pursuit of golden character.
Blessings!
