There are some key things that you can do that will give you a foundation of strength to face adversity and challenges.  This week is Part 8 of our series on “Inspiration” to help you stop workplace bullying.  Its message focuses on the values of Faithfulness and Fortitude.

Faithfulness

Faithfulness is being loyal to our beliefs, remaining firm and steadfast regardless of what happens.  When our faith is tested, we stay strong, and learn from the experience.  We do our work with meticulous care and excellence, faithful to its true intent.  With the people we care, we are abiding and trustworthy.  They know we will not abandon them or violate the sacred trust between us.  Faithfulness through the changes and tests of time builds stronger relationships with others.  As well, being faithful to our own beliefs builds strength.  What are your beliefs?  Are you living them?  Being in alignment with our beliefs can give the added strength we are looking for.

The Practice of Faithfulness

  • I am committed to my beliefs.
  • I seek the lessons in difficulties.
  • I give my work the care it deserves.
  • I stand by my friends and loved ones.
  • I have abiding relationships.
  • I cherish my friendships.

Fortitude

Fortitude is strength of character.  It is the will to endure no matter what happens, with courage, confidence, and patience.  Fortitude is deeply rooted in the bedrock of our will.  We cultivate it by strengthening our resolve to face whatever comes.  It springs from devotion to a purpose we believe to be real and important.  It grows as we face and overcome insurmountable obstacles.  It keeps us going.  Our fortitude can astonish us.

The Practice of Fortitude

  • I have the will to survive.
  • I have the patience to endure.
  • I am guided by a clear purpose.
  • I know what I care about.
  • Whatever life brings makes me stronger.
  • I have amazing endurance.
