| 0:00.0 | I welcome you to the final episode of our series. This week we've been exploring a |
| 0:06.0 | theme selected by one of your fellow meditators and this is episode 2,923 of the |
| 0:15.8 | Daily Meditation Podcast. I'm Mary Mechley and I'm excited to share with you |
| 0:22.6 | this final episode where we've been exploring the theme, the art of not |
| 0:28.8 | giving up and it truly is an art. You've had the challenge this week that Andrea |
| 0:36.3 | issued and that is not to give up on something you love. So reflect on what it is you love |
| 0:46.4 | doing and then pursue it and then don't give up. I'll guide you through a little insight |
| 0:54.4 | and then I'll share with you your meditation for today. The insight I want to share with you |
| 1:04.4 | has to do with ways that I came across as I did research about this episode and the topic of not |
| 1:13.6 | giving up. The main ways not to give up that I came across that kept appearing again and again |

| 2:21.2 | begin to achieve your goals when you visualize exactly what you want to do and what you might need to |
| 2:29.3 | do to get there. The next suggestion to not give up on something that means a lot to you |
| 2:41.1 | is to think about how you'll feel when you accomplish your goal so this is often referred to as |
| 2:50.0 | future pacing visualize how you'll feel in your body when you achieve your goal. This is a powerful |
| 3:00.8 | way to help you stay committed and focused on your goal so you don't give up. So in today's episode |
| 3:11.2 | I invite you now to settle yourself down and get ready for your final meditation in this week's |
