The Power of Commitment
Just a few days ago, I was telling my coach, Jo, about my new “step”, education. We talked about the new “step,” and how committed I was to adding it AND doing something about it…I told Jo, that I would ponder (one of my favorite words-ponder 
-my commitment to acting on it.
Much of education comes to me, as I am an educator at Eastern Michigan University. The commitment to EMU is already in place. I also love to teach sports nutrition and am often asked to educate runners, swimmers and cyclists by sporting stores plus Team in Training.
If I am going to “Journey to Higher Ground” with a step to “educate”, I need to push myself, step out of my comfort zone, and make a commitment to “Higher Ground.”
Jo reminded me of a quote by J.W.von Goethe. The last line of the quote says, “Whatever you can do or dream you can,begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. Begin it now.”
WOW! I dream of becoming a Certified Sports Nutritionist. I WILL begin it NOW! (Yikes! what have I said..
I want you to read the whole quote, The Power of Commitment.
Now, What will YOU commit to AND begin???
