Summary

Commitments to ourselves are the easiest to break, but they are the most damaging long-term. I’m going to be honest, I wanted no part of recording this episode. After working a long day of constant phone calls, I’m beat. The reality of the situation is that with three events coming up within the next month-and-a-half, I can’t deviate from the content schedule we developed or we’ll be in a jam. Where is this true in other parts of your life? Are you getting yourself in a jam because you tell yourself you’ll do something later only to have a new challenge come up as well? Today’s episode is about getting brutally honest with ourselves and investigating how our commitments are holding ourselves back.

Are you looking to connect further with a group of like-mind people? Join myself and others in the Life Optimization Group on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/lifeoptimizationgroup/. I will be dropping daily nuggets to help you live an optimized life.
