Commitment equals determination plus perseverance (C = D + P).

That formula is the basis of all true achievement!

Commitment creates a psychological shift that sets the scene for your goal to happen. No, your goal may not happen exactly as planned but it will happen – if you commit and do what it takes, even when you don’t want to.

You’ve already experienced the power of commitment, or you wouldn’t be where you are now.

Action – If you don’t think you can reach your goal, make sure you can answer this question in the affirmative: “Am I fully prepared to commit my time, energy and resources to this goal?”

If your answer is 100% YES, then you’re well on your way. If it’s anything less, then change your goal until you can answer with a great, big 100% YES!

Your commitment will make all the difference.

  1. Thank you for this excellent equation. On first glance these were my responses: C= commitment D= Dependability P= Passion

  2. The first two words that came to mind for your equation is Determination and Persistence.

  3. I was thinking in terms of personal relationships and used the word “devotion” with persistence. Marriage requires a heavy dose of devotion to make it work.
