In life and business it is very difficult to understand the level of commitments you must maintain to ultimately have success. These are the Top Three commitments you must have.
- Commitment to YOU-a commitment to yourself must transcend the commitment that others have for you for you can never satisfy the needs of others without first satisfying the needs of you!
- Commitment to YOU-all that can be ultimately controlled in life is ourselves. So your commitment to YOU is the only area in which you have 100% control. Over commitment is rampant in our society today but what lacks is committing to YOU first!
- Commitment to YOU-it is YOU that loves your children, it is YOU that loves your spouse/significant other, it is YOU that loves your Agency/Business. No other person can LOVE for you, yet your commitments tend to be toward others first. LOVE for you is a commitment you can control and it opens up the opportunity for your LOVE to be shared and experienced for others.
It has always been YOU and will always be YOU. When you are feeling overwhelmed in your Agency, stressed in your Life ask this question: Am I committed to me or am I committed to someone else’s agenda? I assure you that if your first commitment is not YOU then you will not ever transcend the needs, wants and projected commitments of others on YOU!
THOUGHTS TO PONDER TODAY: Where in your Agency/Business are you frustrated, upset, and stressed AND could it be possibly because your efforts are in fulfilling the commitments of others NOT yourself? What could it mean for your business if you were ruthlessly committed to YOU and your aspirations and targets as PRIORITY #1? When the flow of your Life is moving smoothly and expanding, are you committed to others and their aspirations or YOUR OWN? I assure you the flow of your life and my life is dictated by the commitments to SELF first and that allows the opportunity to be better for everyone else!
