“The
achievement of your goal is assured the moment
you commit yourself to it.” -- Mack R. Douglas
Have you
mustered the courage to start something but
never finished?
Have you offered support to another person and
then faded out of the picture?
If you make a commitment to yourself or
others, the next big question is, “How do I
keep the commitment alive?”
Get all levels
of your being working on it so it anchors and
manifests deeply.
-
Commit
yourself spiritually – identify with your
deepest motivation, cause, purpose, meaning,
the ideal, the higher need, the bigger
picture.
-
Commit your
mind – think about it, discuss it, visualize
it, affirm it, write about it, meditate on
it, journal a dialogue with it, understand
it, make a story about it.
-
Commit your
emotions – imagine and feel the joy and
satisfaction of having it achieved, draw it.
-
Commit
yourself physically – act as if, act
differently, take steps daily, express
yourself.
-
Ask for help
from friends, family and from your higher
self.
-
Give thanks
and open your heart.
It’s essential
that all aspects of our being align with what
we want to do. If our head affirms that
something is important but our body and our
emotions feel no desire to get involved, we
will never succeed in our aims.
