So.... I read this on a coffee cup today.Since this is something I found... I'll get on it.
I like commitment. It's important to me. Commitment does not scare me; it defines me. It really does free me from my internal critic, as the cup says.
The author of this quote was cut off, I had some iSight issues. Her name is Anne Morriss, and I'm sure I'm violating lots of copyright right rules... but yeah. She is a regular Starbucks customer. She described herself as "organization builder, restless American citizen, optimist."
Commitment has been something I've always had conversations about. People seem to think that a commitment is not having control of something (not having control is another post entirely.)
Take a second and think about how the things that you have committed to and haven't. Why haven't you? and what happened when you did? What changed?
I know for me it creates a certain lack of restrictions, and removes noise from my headspace. Which I enjoy, because it's noisy enough in there.
Make a commitment to something. It could be beneficial.
Back in another 3-4 months, I suppose.
