Words to Digest: Tenacity

Tenacity

/təˈnasədē/

noun

The quality or fact of being very determined; determination. The quality or fact of continuing to exist; persistence.

Tenacity is another one of my favorite words. It means diligence… stubbornness… vociferously adhering to something even when faced with great challenges and naysayers. As those who know me can attest, I am the world’s biggest skeptic. But I’m also very tenacious. So I had to commit to the new way of thinking when it came to food and embrace it in a tenacious way.

Have I slipped up.. sure. Have I temporarily fallen away…yep. Do I beat myself up about it… of course. But do I return again to defend and follow… without doubt. Why? Because it works and the recipes really do taste good!
