Commitments to Me

The commitments I make to myself are the most important.  When I fail to make these commitments, it hurts more than anything.  That's not to say that I am selfish, or that I am content breaking promises and falling through on commitments to others.

When you fail to meet your own expectations and goals, you're likely to do so for others'.

So what are your commitments to you?

Here are a few of mine:

• Eat healthy
• Exercise 5 out of 7 days of the week.
• Relax
• Kaizen: continuous improvement
• Follow through with daily and weekly "to-do's"
• Scrutinize every new obligation you consider taking on (this can be as little as adding another RSS feed to your reader to picking up a new hobby)
