If you really think about it, perseverance is one tough cookie and very strategic! See, perseverance is quite often misinterpreted for being a bull in a china shop, just running through life with all the brute force and grit you can muster. That my friend is the furthest concept from the truth. Well, look at it objectively…. You can do that, but as you learned in Life Tip 88, what is the point of creating such a great story, only to push so hard that you destroy everything you worked so hard to accomplish?

Being a tough cookie is truly understanding that in the most troubled times, YOU will not crumble! Being tough to take the hits is one of the greatest keys you can ever possess to keep it moving in motion. But, being tough also comes with the responsibility of strategy, and this strategy is going to help you to find the loopholes in the system.

Listen, a loophole isn’t an easy way out or a shortcut, what this is, is the ability to allow the rules in your situation to show themself. These rules are instituted for a reason, and in every rule, there is typically an “if” in them. This IF can definitely change the game. You have heard the phrase, “If you choose to do so…” and also have seen it in this book a few times. IF and Choose are two very important words in this context. Why? Because it is all about choices and decisions, and which ones you make.

Ok, so, here we go… plain and simple. Take football, when you are on your last down and you are close to the end zone, the rule is, make it past the endzone for a touchdown, right? However, the loophole is, you can kick for the goal and still receive the 3 points instead of the 7, and win the game. The loopholes are always options for you to receive the victory, however, you first have to know the rules. Remember Life Tip 30? It is all about understanding the responsibility of the rules, that is why they are rules. But look at that tip as power for your life!

When you come to understand that the responsibility is all up to you, this is where you will begin to see the freedom in your life from that responsibility. This mindset will cause you to take on a new identity from a place of “Hopefully I can do this,” to “I own this responsibility to make it happen!” This is all part of the loopholes in the rules, look deeper than where you are to make it across the finish line today!

So, what loopholes can you find to make it?

What will you do with those decisions?

Write and evaluate your thoughts and put them into action….
