Committing to purpose
A popular saying - Motivation gets you started but commitment keeps you going
Take yesterday for example. It was one of those challenging days where lots of little things needed attention. Nothing major, but added together they took up nearly eight hours of the day.
It would have been easy to just write the day off and promise myself that I will get my web stuff done “tomorrow”. But if you know me then you know that I don't believe in tomorrows
A promise to me by me is a promise that will never be reneged upon. My plan said Tuesday so Tuesday it is.
I’m committed totally to my on-line business and the work was going to be done. That video is never going to bring in the money if it’s sat on my computer hard drive. It needs to be out there where the viewing public can see it, can interact and enjoy it. And so I happily sat there into the dark, putting the finishing touches to the latest video. By 11pm I decided I had shown willing and had caught up significantly.
A couple of hours this morning and all is done. The video is finished, the texts are done, and I’m a happy bunny – and do I feel good.
Commitment is action
Commitment is taking positive actions
Commitment is a choice
Choose wisely, get motivated and commit
Time for my daily stroll - another of my commitments

Great post Bux, well done on what you achieved. So very true without commitment, motivation stands little ground - the stronger our commitment the stronger our anchor becomes.
A great inner voice and self talk you have.
Wishing you a great rest of the week.

Relaxed a bit this afternoon Nick. Decided I wanted to try a new curry recipe in my head. It actually turned out 5 star.
Made a few notes for the next video and tomorrow morning we are full steam ahead again.
Make a plan, write it down, commit to it.

Great to hear the curry recipe could be up for a Michelin star in the future my friend!
Get a good nights sleep and full steam ahead tomorrow!
I wish I could be as committed as you, one day soon I will be!
Hi Bux
You made me think... Thank you.
Commitment to the ‘whys’ of my priorities keeps me motivated. Coupled with curiosity helps keep me energised.
Commitment with a touch of curiosity keeps me moving forward.

Hi Bux
I suspect it’s the other way around... if we don’t believe, we don’t truly commit.
