How Can You Know If Your Dream Is Right For You

What Is Your Level Of Commitment?


When a person is committed, they will accept the responsibility long before they are given the authority.  In general, potential employers at all levels view college graduates as a group who have documentation that proved they took the time and effort to finish something they started. Something much bigger than the individual. They were committed.


  • Commitment Is Largely Misunderstood: When you have the resolve, the resources will follow.


  • Committed Leaders Show It With Their Lives:  "You can't shake hands with a clenched fist" (Ghandi)

  • Commitment Is The Fraternal Twin of Decision: It is your present decisions that determine your future condition.



  • Commitment Does Not Allow You To Get Off Course: If you are avoiding the hard work, it's probably because you are not as committed as much as you may think.

  • Commitment Sometimes Must Be Made Long Before A Situation Arises:  Prior to leaving home and getting on the plane for the convention at the hotel in Las Vegas, he had already decided that under no circumstances would he allow himself to get caught alone with...(you fill in the blank) 

You know when you are committed when you move from a consumer mindset to that of a contributor and recognize the error of past thinking. Here is when you can get your mind as well as your emotions in sync for the same cause.  Never expect your team to have a deeper commitment than yourself.  If you are a leader and yet no one is really following you, then you're just out taking a walk.



As always, please share your thoughts and comment.

As the World Changes I Remain Flexible

The following is from my Ebook  Now It's My Turn  on Amazon. Setting Goals in Detail The wisest man who ever lived, King Solomon, said, “Where there is no vision, the people perish” (Proverbs 29:18 KJV). Gaining a clear and precise vision brings life to our innermost being. Having no vision at all, not knowing the direction we should take, and having no dreams takes life from us because we have nothing of any consequence to live for. Basically, find your purpose in life, and you will truly have a life worth living. Some people know exactly what they want and are meant to do from a very young age. Others need to focus and experience different situations both positive and negative. I found out from trial and error and from seeking God what my personal mission in life is. Perhaps your journey is similar. Your purpose in life could be to run for public office, or it could be to raise responsible children who will go out into the world and make a difference. It could be nothing more th

The Good Doctor - Pt 1 When we last left our weary travelers, they had just received the worst news an exhausted and exacerbated traveler could get especially in front of witnesses. CREDIT CARD DECLINED!!! With veins popping and expletives flowing the good Dr. Cut-Me-Up was about ready to Stroke Out! But wait...Mrs. Cut-Me-Up thinking quickly whips out her iPhone as if it’s a Walther PPK and she’s been given a license to kill...or rather charge. Yes, that’s right the Apple Farm Inn accepts Apple Pay. (I’m willing to bet most of our staff doesn’t know this). Quicker than you can say Apple Dumpling their room was secured. With a little help from a House Man, the couple, their luggage along with their wine glasses arrived at his personal favorite room 300. Barely in a seat the phone rings. “ Ah what is it now ” growls the doctor.                                                                   “ Hello, this is Claudia the ni

A Day in the Life of an Event Staff Employee or, What Ever Happened to the Other Guys?

The following is my best recollection of the North Hollywood Shoot Out  February 28, 1997 This posting of "A Day In The Life" flows in the same vain as the  A Day In The Life Of An Airport Shuttle Driver . Its all about my life chapter during the 1990's while earning a living in the San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles, California.  But this time, rather than the Northridge Earthquake we're on the Universal Studios hill watching the Bank of America in North Hollywood. Wow what a day. photo courtesy of Personlliberty.com First, let me begin by adamantly stating that although memory fades, I know what I saw...they did not catch everyone. Unlike my piece on the Northridge Earthquake this is not so much the telling of a story as it is an observation with a question. One of many places of employment I had in the 1990's was for an event security company hired by at the time known as the Universal Amphitheatre at Universal Studios . It was actually a coo
