Repeat! Repeat! Repeat! Repeat!

Repetition is far more important than I ever imagined it to be.

 

The spiritual law of repetition states that anything done over and over and over again becomes predominant. So whether you are trying to create a new habit or form a new thought system, repetition is key.

 

Imagine that you are walking through a forest. Every day you walk down the same trail. You have been doing this for years and so the trail is clear. There are no obstacles.

 

But now imagine if you decide it's time for a change. You want a new trail but in order to make a new trail, it means blazing a whole new path and the forest is very thick. You understand that the new trail will take some work and commitment but you decide it's worth it.

repeat

 

 

You go to the forest and choose the area where you will blaze your new trail. Each day thereafter you walk the trail. It's very challenging, in fact, much more challenging than you expected.  There are so many obstacles and the grass is well above your knees; it's nearly impossible to see what lays before you. Frustrated, you begin to think it would be so much easier to revert to your old trail.

 

A strong gentle voice urges you to continue. 'Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.'

 

And so each day you push yourself to walk the new trail. Slowly but surely a new trail emerges. The obstacles begin to fall away, the trail becomes clearer and it's so much easier to see what lays before you. The trail has given you a new sense of purpose, passion and meaning. You are so grateful that you never gave up. You knew what you wanted and every single day you repeated your commitment until it became reality.

 

This is exactly what it's like for us anytime we want to do something new or different in our lives. What needs repetition in your life? How would repeating this impact your life?
