Friday, The power of personal commitments

I struggled with my weight and health for years before I found a trick to make managing both pretty easy & fun.  The trick was making my Just 4 Today pledge at the start of each day and writing an essay about some aspect of making a commitment real.

And it worked for years.

The inverse of that trick also works — if you don’t touch base with that commitment (saying it’s just today) that commitment loses power.  And pieces of it flicker out and away. . . . It’s not like the world comes to an end.  Actually, everything seems just a little easier – after all for me, I wasn’t having to get up at the crack of dawn to write a post read by maybe 50 or 60 people.  It was a relief really.  Really. Or not.

Well, things are changing (this a promise to both of us) :

  • Just 4 Today posted (check)
  • Coffee drunk & Breakfast eaten (check)
  • Medication & Supplements taken (check)
  • Spending time thinking about the power of dreams & plans (check)

…. Well, alrighty then! Let’s go.
