Commitment - it's complicated - or is it?

This is an email about the events I am offering this summer. It takes a lot of commitment and trust to sign up to attend an event. When you commit to attend an event, by spending money, time and attention, what drives that commitment?

What drives us to commit to anything? Relationships? Careers? Places to live?

It's complicated, right?

There's this internal algorithm that each of us uses to gauge if we are ready to commit to something. We want to be sure that we will benefit from the expenditure of resources, that it will be enjoyable, that we'll feel safe (enough) in the experience, that we won't get ripped off or further traumatized... to name a few factors.

The decision to commit can be crazy-making. Indecision is not a comfortable or stable place for most of us. I get so squirmy when I am undecided about something!

Commitment creates change.

"Commitment is a line you cross - it's the line between wishing and doing."

Sometimes I don't want to cross that line. I LIKE the "wishing" state of being. It's dreamy and fun and requires NO risk. It's great!

And sometimes I want to be convinced to commit to something. Because I WANT to commit, but I am afraid for some reason. I want someone to help me cross the commitment line, because then I feel a sense of connection from the get-go.

The best tool for simplifying the commitment algorithm?

Don't commit until you feel a FULL BODY YES. What does this feel like in your body? Close your eyes now, and let your body remember - the last time all of your cells were aligned towards something - an experience, a person, a place, some music, a story. It's OK to just NOT do - and to wait until you feel this undeniable pull to say yes, to jump in, and to move forward.

If it's not a full body yes, let it be a "No". That's a hard rule to live by, but wow, it can make things simple.

If you're on the fence about any of these experiences, feel free to book a discovery call with me here. I'm happy to support your process of finding clarity.
