How Committed Are You to Achieving Your Goals?

The Power of Commitment is Significant to Goal Achievment

Take a look at your goals list…your annual goals or your monthly goals. Either will do. Bearing in mind it’s mid-year and we’re also three-fourths of the way through the month, how are you doing on your goals?

If you’re not where you need to be, if you find yourself procrastinating, ask yourself this question: How committed am I to achieving my goals?

There’s a big difference between being just interested in achieving your goals and being committed to achieving your goals. You must commit 100%. Not 99%, but 100%.

In the words of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, “Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness…”

We’ve seen the power of the commitment of a single individual: Gandhi, Mother Theresa, or Hitler, for example. These leaders had a single-minded devotion to their respective causes.

The power of commitment is significant. Commit to your goals. Commit to your success.
