You Can Start, But Can You Finish?
by Gary Ryan Blair“You can’t finish what you don’t start, and you should never start what you’re not committed to finish.” – Gary Ryan Blair
Pick a goal…any goal.
Got one?
Good.
Be mindful…
That goal you just picked…
That thing you want to be, do or have…
Will have no value if you don’t finish.
And, chances are you’ll never get it across the finish line.
Why?
Commitment issues.
How can I be so certain?
Behavior never lies.
Here’s the deal…
There is but one acceptable degree of commitment…Total.
Commitments present themselves in delineations of black and white…
You either honor your commitments, or you don’t.
There are no shades of grey…zip, zero, nada.
Success is the result of making and keeping commitments to yourself and others…
While all failed or unfinished goals, projects, and relationships are the direct result of broken obligations.
It’s that simple, that profound, and that important.
Commitment is a serious competitive problem…
That merits a serious and sustained competitive solution.
Your ability to honor your promises directly impacts your credibility, reputation, trustworthiness, earning ability, and overall peace of mind.
The greatest and most unfortunate betrayal is that of oneself.
Being able to adhere to our commitments begins with self-respect.
