True commitment

is serious and it is powerful.

Commitment is not just saying you’ll do

it.

Commitment is doing it.

True commitment is not conditional,

for to be committed means

to be absolutely committed.

Commitment is more than doing just what is convenient or comfortable.

Commitment is doing what is necessary.

Commitment is making the sacrifices and

the tradeoffs that are required to uphold it.

Commitment is more than just wishing

for the right conditions.

Commitment is not easy.

Commitment does not back down or run away at the first sign of trouble.

Commitment perseveres

until the goal is reached.

Commitment does not waste time and

effort whining or complaining

or seeking to find blame.

Commitment adjusts to reality and moves forward.

Too many people have been deceived for too long,

and have come to expect that they can know

fulfillment without the gritty effort of

commitment.

They are sadly mistaken.

Real, solid commitment is real work.

And well worth it. The evidence is overwhelming-it gets

results like nothing else can.

(Rewrite of Ralph Marston)
