So today what we're going to be talking about is commitment. The thing that separates the doers from the dreamers, and what I'm going to talk to you about and use a lot of quoting is from a book by John C Maxwell called Motivated to succeed.

So motivated to succeed. And he talks about commitment. And before I dive into the commitment, I'm going to give you a quote on commitment that I love.

And it is from Mario and Freddie, the racer, and it says desire is the key to motivation, but it's determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit, pursuit of your goal, a commitment to excellence that will enable you to attain the success you seek.

So as far as commitments, you know, what is commitment to each person commitment is something different.

I'm going to go through what John C Maxwell talks about in his book and he says to the boxer, it is getting off of the mat one more time when you've been knocked down to the marathon runner.

It is running another 10 miles when you're strength is completely gone to the soldier. It is going over the hill and not know what's waiting, know what's waiting on the other side to the missionary.

It's saying goodbye to your own comfort to make life better for others to the leader. It's all of that and more because everyone you lead is depending on you.

If you want to be an effective leader, if you want to be a successful person, you have to be committed true commitment inspires and also attracts other people.

It shows them that you have conviction and people are attracted to conviction and passion. It's like the quote says, if you light yourself on fire, people will come to watch you burn.

So they will believe in you and only believe in your cause as well. If you really have that conviction and buy in as the law of buying states people buy into the leader, they don't buy into the vision.

So as far as commitment, three things that you need to know about commitment. Number one, commitment starts in the heart. Some people want everything to be perfect before they commit to doing anything for themselves.
