When you said perseverance, I thought of one. My church. For the longest time, I didn't feel...connected there. I didn't feel like I fit in, I beat myself up over things that were really no big deal in the end. I kept going very sporadically though, because I go to their meditation group before church starts, which I love. In early summer, I decided to talk to the reverend about my feelings that were keeping me away from going. It was tremendously helpful, and she is the best. She is so kind and all I did was be proactive. For me, the key was finding a way to take away my insecurity and negative untrue thoughts. Familiarity helps too. I'm honestly still not 100% sure it's the most perfect fit for me belief-wise, I will have to find out more, but it's pretty good for now and I like it.
