What Commitment Actually Means

Are you committing to trying to make your goals happen?

Or are you committing to making your goals happen?

Because there’s a big difference.

When you commit to trying you’re not really making a true commitment. You’re making a temporary, half-hearted, ‘hopefully, I can do it’ attempt at your dreams.

Would we have got to the moon if we had committed to trying?

51 years ago, going to the moon was impossible. We didn’t have the right equipment or the right understanding. Even up until the last minute, we didn’t know how to do it.

But NASA didn’t commit to trying, we committed to making it happen, no matter what, whatever it takes.

And THAT is why it happened.

So decide today that you are going to stop trying to make your goals happen, and instead commit to making your goals happen. No matter what. Whatever it takes.
