6 min - #27 How to Increase Your Tolerance for Discouragement
I would like to tell you that you and I can completely rid ourselves of discouragement, but I can’t. Discouragement is a part of life that we can’t completely avoid.
But I can tell you how to increase your tolerance level for discouragement. It involves making three small changes:
- Change Your Focus.
- Change Your Comparisons.
- Change Your Frame.
If you’re a person of faith, you can see these three changes in the story of David and Goliath.
Are you discouraged today? Is there something that seems too big for you? Try applying these 3 changes and see if it doesn’t raise your tolerance level for discouragement.
