Commitment is integral to achievement.

Commitment is a tie that binds you to your goals. Commitment is not always easy, but it is absolutely necessary.

How does one become fully committed?

To maintain your vigor and tenacity in achieving goals you must tie your commitment to the right things.

True and pure commitment is often born when one is authentically inspired.

Superficial desires or goals are often not strong enough to bear the tenuous journey on the way to excellence.  One’s success is often more solidified when individual commitment is driven by something stronger and deeper. This assures the translation of goals to reality.

In a book entitled The Mindset of Achievement by Scott Abel, this is summed up beautifully

 

Success can be elusive.

It can be baffling when it seems that no matter how hard you try you can’t seem to hang in there long enough to see your goals to fruition.

The truth is, often what we use as our muse is not strong enough to maintain our commitment. The pull is not strong enough to inspire us to continue to push.

I heard someone say recently your goal should be enough to inspire you to push, to commit, to follow through.

Fundamentally, one has to be inspired on a much deeper level.

I challenge you to dig deep and find a strong reason for wanting to achieve the particular goal you have chosen. Choose a muse that will continue to inspire you long after the ethereal feeling of starting something new has worn off and you are in the trenches getting down and dirty.
