When it comes to commitment, I often hear people say things like, "Some day I will become committed to going to the gym" or "Some day I will become committed to this relationship" or "Someday I will be committed to reading my Bible and praying everyday." Often times we look at commitment as something we grow towards.
Commitment, much like discipline, is not something you become one day in the future. On the contrary, commitment is something you do everyday. We don't grow towards commitment, we grow through them.
People who accomplish their dreams in life have committed to daily investments necessary to accomplish that dream. The marathon runner makes a commitment to run 1 mile a day years before ever entering and winning a 26K marathon. A New York Times best-selling author writes everyday and then re-writes for weeks before ever getting their first article published. The engineer designs thousands of failed products until one day she comes up with a brilliant idea. I think you get the point.
Commitment is a process of mini-milestones that must be met in order to achieve success. What are the milestones you have set in place to help you accomplish your dreams?
