What is the power of
commitment?
Commitment is one of the
superpowers of True Believers and where we take responsibility for our life,
become clear about what we want and work productively until we finish.
Commitment comes as a result of your conviction — your belief in your vision.
... It's the power of a personal promise.
What is the purpose of
commitment?
Commitment creates a bond of
mutual trust. It creates an understanding and obligation between two parties.
It provides purpose and a pledge to uphold.
Why is Commitment so important?
When you only commit to the
people and things that are truly important to you, your career, or your
company, the results are that your relationships will improve, you will be more
successful in achieving your goals, and you'll have more time to enjoy your
journey. Your commitment does not end with the decision!

Hereby, I bring you the seven
commitments that one must make to himself on his pursuit to success:
#1 Commitment: Believing in
yourself:
You have got to believe in
yourself before others start believing in you. Whatever is that you would like
to achieve, make sure that you believe in it and trust your abilities to
accomplish it.
The problem is that people tend
to underestimate their capabilities that stops them to reach their true
potential.
Take a notebook and write your
strengths, uniquenesses, greatest achievements and accomplishments in it and
read them aloud every morning. This little technique can do wonders to
strengthen your belief in yourself.
Everyday, I see so many people
with a lot of potential but their low self-esteem and lack of confidence is
getting in their way to success. It’s essential to accept yourself and believe
in abilities to live your best life.
#2 Commitment: Taking massive
action everyday...
Now that you know what you want
to pursue in life, it’s time to make an action plan for it.
Whether your goals are small or
big, you need to be commit yourself to take massive action every single day
without any excuses.
It starts with preparing your
brain to passionately chase your dreams or whatever you are passionate about in
life. You can begin by making a plan. Well, there are many planning tools out
there to help you out. While making your action plan, make sure you customize
it as per your needs and strengths.
Don’t be too casual or overly
ambitious about them. Be as realistic as possible so that you are inspired
enough to take massive action on them everyday without any excuses.
#3 Commitment: Being adaptable
and learning continually...
Adaptability and zeal to grow
can take you places in life. It’s sad to see that people are too rigid in their
thoughts and beliefs that they reject any suggestions or new approach given to
them. It can be dangerous for their career and overall life in general.
In the words of Charles Darwin,
“It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent
that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change.”
Learn as much as you can from
whosoever you want as it would be something no one can take away from you.
Never stop learning as most
times there are more than one way to do a same thing. The moment you shed your
preconceived notions and embrace adaptability, opportunities will automatically
present themself in the most unexpected ways.
#4 Commitment: Willingness to
lose some sleep and saying NO!...
Success often comes to those
who are willing to do whatever it takes to be successful. You would not only have
to work your butt off but might have to say no to several things that don’t
align with your goals.
It might be tempting to go
shopping or party with friends on weekends but working on your startup or
writing your next blog is what is going to make to make an actual difference.
If you are working on your job during day then the only way to work on your
dream is by losing some sleep.
One more thing, start saying NO
more often. It might take a lot of courage to say no to friends but doing it
will make your life more successful and happier than theirs.
#5 Commitment: Not doing
unethical or immoral stuff:...
There are two ways to succeed:
the easy way and the difficult one. Going for an easy way means doing
‘whatever’ it takes to reach there — by hook or by crook. It means taking
shortcuts, favors, doing unethical things that go against the moral compass.
Now, the commitment is not to
do any of the things mentioned above.
You might get seduced with the
idea of doing something unethical and get quick results.
However, such things always
come with a price — that can easily ruin everything within a snap of a finger.
Remember that the journey to success is going to test your character along with
dedication.
#6 Commitment: Maintaining
proper work-life balance...
Do you know what is the single
most important thing in your life? It’s nothing else but your health. Your
physical and mental health plays an important part in your life as everything
directly or indirectly depends on it.
Don’t get too consumed in working
hard that you start ignoring your health.
If you’ve worked tirelessly for
straight 40 hours, it makes sense to give your body the rest it deserves.
If you’re working on weekends,
try spending at least a few hours with your near and dear ones and recharge
your batteries.
#7 Commitment: Never giving
up...
As cliche` as it may sound but
never giving up on yourself is the ultimate mantra to success.
As you walk through life, you
will fall down many times. You might also make mistakes and fail, and it’s
absolutely okay.
That’s life and things will
happen but never let this hamper your spirits in any way.
Keep in mind that in order to
succeed and become your best version, you have to have a lot of faith in
yourself.
This indomitable spirit will
help you get through these tough times a bit easily. Don’t give up ever — come
what may.
