| Along the journey toward our goals, it is important to possess
commitment and express compassion. When you approach your
life with commitment and compassion, there will be no
stopping you in your pursuits, and you will learn to be
easy on yourself. To commit means to become attached. A commitment is a binding
agreement. When we commit an act, we are bound to it. We
cannot take it back. When we make a commitment, we are bound
to not go back on our word. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ First we commit in thought, then we follow through on the
commitment in action. In goal-setting, our thoughts first
become attached to an outcome, then our actions commit us to a
physical path. When our thoughts and actions are aligned to
the same commitment, we manifest conflicting energies. When we commit to reaching our goals, we make a binding
agreement with our selves. A commitment is usually proclaimed
in a ceremony, so do this with your goals and desires.
Formally commit yourself to thinking about what you want and
acting toward it. A commitment is always to your self, since
other people represent aspects of our selves. In any relationship, it is important to be clear on what trust
means to each of you, in three dimensional specific terms.
Trust for a guy us usually physical, manifesting as, “Don’t be
with another.” Trust for a woman is usually mental,
manifesting as, “Don’t think about another.” Herein lies a
huge misunderstood conflict that shows the importance of being
clear about what certain concepts mean to each of you. The
same is true in business and any relationship dealing with
trust or the lack thereof. Anyone can stick to their word when there’s no temptation. A
commitment means sticking to your word while intense forces
try to distort you. Life is filled with temptation, and we are
easily distracted away from our commitments. We all know the
intense forces we are subject to in three dimensional illusion. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In the pursuit of our goals, distraction lies everywhere. With
every turn, every decision, every action, every inaction,
there lies a potential detour away from the path that leads to
your desires. We must be constantly vigilant, to be sure that
our decisions, thoughts, actions and emotions keep us aligned
with the path we want to follow. It is alright if your path
changes because your goal changes, but don’t allow yourself to
be pulled onto a path that is not of your choice. When you do
become distracted, remember that you can get back on any path
you choose, at any moment you choose. Re-alignment takes only
a moment, and it is never too late for anyone. When you are committed to yourself, you will be tempted by
doubt, guilt and a relentless cacophony of other forces beyond
our understanding. Being committed to yourself means that you
keep taking action toward your path and keeping your mind
focused on the goal. When you are faced with your own mental
resistance, realize that it is only temptation. Give it as
much validity as you choose. Tomorrow, we will discuss the importance of Compassion in your
journey of enlightenment. Until Tomorrow… ~Quentin Danziger Quentin has over 20 years experience balancing what we refer to
