Is commitment a direction to be pursued as long as it works for you, or a direction to be pursued until it works for you?

It's a direction to run away from. Sorry, commitmentphobe on board.

either/or neither/nor is commitment always the goal??? To me it is. I mean if you are not committed in what you do then really is there a point in doing it? Commitment in your job, commitment in you family, commitment in your friends.

I think some commitments are good to have

Commitment to job: I'll be starting a new contracting job Sunday or Monday. I'm committed to clawing my way back up from where I am but if something better comes along, I'll probably bite. Commitment to family and friends: I've become much more selective with both these days. It seems like most of the friends that I care about are usually busy as I'm about to become but I'll endeavor to be available one way or another. Starting my own family is far from a priority.

Nobody owes you anything. What you achieve, or fail to achieve Is directly related to what you do or fail to do. No one chooses his parents or childhood, But you can choose your own direction. Everyone has problems & Obstacles to overcome, But that too is relative to each individual. Nothing is carved in stone! If you want to badly enough. Excuses are for losers! Those who take responsibility for the actions Are the real winners in life. Knowing there are no guarantees, and give it all they’ve got. And never think it’s too late Or too early to begin. Time plays no favorites And will pass whether you are ready or not. Take control of your life Dare to dream and take a risk….. Compete! If you aren’t willing to work for your goals, don’t expect others to BELIEVE IN YOURSELF ~Author Unknown~
