How Do You Know if You Are Commited?

By the Result

It sounds too simple. A seminar guru I used to follow along with my compatriots in commercial real estate had some real life lessons.

There is no in between with commitment. If you fail, it means you tried but weren’t committed.

If you look back at anything you ever achieved vs things at which you failed, what were the differences.

I know that I set out to do things and quitting is not an option. I am 110% in. It doesn’t even matter if I have a specific goal.  I started snow boarding when many of my middle aged friends had given up.  After a few bounces, it was clear why they had given up. But I was committed.

I have started surfing again and it is tough to re learn but quitting is not an option. I started learning how the internet works and I was fascinated. It doesn’t matter where it exactly takes me, but quitting is not even a thought.

It could apply to relationships too. Even though I have promised, it is clear I was not committed.

I am clearly committed to staying in good physical shape. It is something I have never stopped pursuing.

Take inventory of your commitments. The next time you say you’re going to do something, will you be committed or are you going to try?
