Success in life really comes down to these two words: Show up.
There is nothing magical or hard about it. When you show up good things will eventually happen.
When you show up you are keeping the commitment that you made to yourself. This one thing alone is just as important as the showing up part. Once you quit lying to yourself, you can take control over everything in your life.
Humans suck at commitments. We don’t like to make them to ourselves and we definitely don’t like to make them to there people and be held accountable to them. When we commit we are putting ourselves out there. We are taking the chance that we could fail. Humans don’t like failure and we will avoid it all cost. Because of this we don’t go “all in” on commitments.
Work is a commitment that you keep because there is an incentive tied to it. I am not talking about these commitments. These are the easy ones. I am talking about the commitments that you don’t have to make. And you definitely don’t have to keep them. These are the hard ones and these are the ones that will impact your life the most positively.
When people aren’t getting the results they want. When they are not accomplishing their goals.
It comes down to their lack of commitment to them. If you haven’t fully committed, you won’t show up.
Take inventory of your life today and ask yourself the simple question.
Are you showing up to the things you said were important to you? If the answer is no. Then I would challenge you to ask yourself how committed you really are to the thing.
My mentor said it best. “action follows commitment.” You won’t take action until you are committed.
To your success and your future.
