THE ART OF COMMITMENT

Having put little thought into the art of approach a few days back, I thought it was time to write a few lines about the art of committing. Commitment as a term, as a noun and as something no living person can do or live without.

To me commitment is key; as essential as drawing breath and waking up each morning before 6 am to meditate and work out. Commitment is what defines me to towards myself and towards all my relations, both privately and in my business life. Here is how I use it - in short:

I'm in a constant evolving process and decided long ago to challenge myself hourly in order to push myself to the limit and thereby obtain full potential in life. This includes committing 100% to staying focussed on whatever task lies at hand; work, marriage, parenthood, friendships and so on. It's quite a load and therefore commitment is needed to stay in line and improve.

I've come to the conclusion that what works for me is keeping an open and clean mind and continuously analyzing my various interactions with people in all types of settings and situations. Because each person has flaws, and plenty of them. I, for one, have a temper issue that in all fairness has improved tremendously over the years. But occasionally I still feel the urge to kill a person or at least smack that person around and that solves little to nothing admittedly. Committing to the process of realization I contemplate a way to minimize and in time completely remove this way of thinking. The power of thought and actually free will! Committing to not being a slave of poor, poor instinct is key in this quite normal example.

Daring to commit to challenges in life is a hard thing to do and it takes strength! Removing the excuses and stepping up your game (= committing) is the way forward. Then the commitment term known in everyday life (e.g. girlfriend/boyfriend, school, work, exercise, etc.) becomes a walk in the park!

COMMIT TO CHALLENGES AND CHANGES!
