How Committed Are You?

Success is twenty percent skill and eighty percent consistency.

Consistency is the foundation for being committed.

When we commit to something we make a decision to see it out, until the desired result is reached.

But to get the desired result we need to be consistent in the things we do everyday towards it.

Consistency comes in many forms but one thing is key, repeating the same tasks towards your end goal over and over again. It requires focus and sacrifice.

Sometime it’s doing things you could do without that seems tedious or boring. Actually it’s very necessary to the process.

Giving up to soon is something we see in society now, with it’s almost slot machine mentality. Companies like Amazon or streaming services where one click can trigger an instant or next day delivery. It’s no wonder it’s hard for us to get our heads around consistency when we want instant results.

Any person who is very committed to a task or working towards something will tell you it’s not the absence of issues or setbacks but it’s the grit and consistency that has helped them to get to the desired finish line.

They were and are committed to the process.

Being committed drowns out the outside noise, disappointment, setbacks, feeling of giving up and the rest.

Because when these times come just like in marriage or parenting there is always teething problems but you’re in it for the long hall. Exploring ways to improve or work at things.

When you take a posture of being a commitmented person to the things that truly matter. You also know when your hearts not truly in it and make plans to leave that situations.

If someone is not committed to many things this will only leave you confused because it leaves you thinking is it just me bailing out again.

So taking a commited posture ensures you’re put your heart and soul into those things you want to see change or gain.

If you’re unsure why you struggle to commit it’s probably time to think about why that it is. It maybe a pattern throughout your life or you could just be in a place of exhaustion.

There are so many reasons way and this is something to be explored, and to work through. Overcoming these limitations can in fact help you to pursue you’re endeavours again.

Is it time to get recommitted?
