DECIDE TO COMMIT

The final step to 'loving yourself more' is action and sewn inside that magic word is 'commitment'. Saying yes is the easy part. Sticking to 'it' when its not fun anymore, a wee bit tougher. We are told to commit no MATTER what, that its mind over MATTER, hey, what's the MATTER? The matter is the sludge that distracts us, the voice of the evil twin on our shoulder, the tap tap tap of distraction doubt and drama.

When you do decide, seeing the completed result in your mind and pushpushpush until the moment of completion, you truly realize what your grey MATTER can achieve regardless of anything else. The final congratulations, the freedom that comes through focus, the relief of beating the 'block' and the win over the initial fears all begins with the decision to commit. When those tap tap taps get tap tap tapping (like they always do) take a breath, remember the outcome you want, shake off the imaginary fear and decide to commit once more.

Take in this gorgeous poem of inspiration to assist in welcoming the spring season of commitment.

--

Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back;

always, ineffectiveness concerning all acts of initiative (and creation).

There is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans:

that the moment one definitely commits oneself,then Providence moves too.

All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred.

A whole stream of events issues from the decision,

raising in one’s favour all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance

which no one could have dreamed would have come their way.

Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it.

Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.

Begin it now.
