The Amazing Power of Commitment

Yesterday I talked about commitment with a long term client. He would not tell me his commitment regarding a certain issue that has long bothered him. He said he would be judged and nagged, and involve the other person in being responsible for his success or failure if he shared his commitment. Clearly we had hit a hot button and despite his protests that his way of not making public his commitments worked, everything from his tone of voice, to his body language, breathing, facial expressions, the amount of adrenaline he was activating and his actual results showed this wasn’t true. His “I have to do it all by myself persona” was in charge. I’ll be interested in seeing how this plays out next time we meet.

I have found the exact opposite to be true of making a commitment. The power of commitment gives me a sense of freedom, a sense of direction and clarity. Several weeks ago I made a commitment to my coach, Gay Hendricks and several others to write a sample business proposal for an idea that I am truly passionate about. I agreed to have this completed by the end of August – yesterday.

At the moment I made the commitment I was in my zone of genius, excited, passionate. Since then I hit my upper limit, playing in my own self created drama triangle that this was a dumb idea. Then there was this commitment I had made. I am good at keeping my commitment to others. Many times I had started writing this proposal in the last month. Yesterday I sat down and for several hours, words flowed and I completed the sample proposal. It’s far from perfect (as my perfectionist persona tells me). It’s done and now I have a working document to play with and I’m excited. I’m exhilarated!

That short written document gave me a sense of tremendous power. I have taken a major first step in making my dream a reality. If I had not had that commitment I would have become controlled by my naysayer persona that is quite willing to tell me frequently and loudly that I can’t do it.

Here’s to the power of commitment. Thanks Gay!

With much gratitude and appreciation,

Note: Persona from the Greek word mask. Being in persona is a way of being in the world that is different from us being our true self.

The Value of Persistence

So you’ve made those New Year’s Resolutions so what now?

Are you going to be like the vast majority of people who either don’t make resolutions or give up on them before January is even over?
On a December trip to Santa Barbara I had the privilege of meeting with Gay Hendricks who brought along his friend, Bob Proctor, who he had just picked up at the airport. Bob Proctor is known for his work in motivation. I can see why.
Bob Proctor talked of growing up being a fan of Napoleon Hill. Napoleon Hill spent his life researching what makes a successful person a success. Proctor reads the chapter on Persistence each day for 30 days at least once each year. He brought with him his original copy of  Think and Grow Rich that he carries with him always. He was also a featured presenter on The Secret.

One percent of the population earns 96 percent of the money. Bob Proctor states that you could be part of this  one percent.  He asks if you are willing to do what it takes regardless of what is happening in the outside world. He asks if you are willing to be in control of your own destiny instead of letting others outside of you control you destiny.

Persistence is not necessarily an easy habit for many of us. Yet the universe is willing to be incredibly helpful if we just put forth a little effort. It’s amazing what making one small commitment to yourself and keeping it can do for both your self esteem and your motivation.

I recommend starting with something small. Working out five days a week in the gym for an hour each day could be a bit much if you have not worked out in years. Starting with a minimum of five minutes two days a week is doable. Deciding to make fifty sales calls a day may again be overwhelming but deciding each day to focus on your top three accounts and setting up a meeting with a new prospect may again be manageable and not so overwhelming.

Find something you can agree to do and stick to it. Persistence. It’s one of those major traits that all successful people have in common.  How can you best use persistance to obtain the abundance and success you desire. 

If I can assist you with your level of motivation and persistence or any other coaching issues, please give me a call.

Happy New Year!

Until Next Time,

Learning to Trust your Gut

As a coach, one of the hardest things I ask my clients to do is to be in the moment, to notice and observe without judgment the feelings in their body at this very moment. Learning to listen to our bodies gives us the information we need to “trust our gut” instead of relying on information outside of us to make decisions.

Many successful business leaders have learned to trust their gut.  As Donald Trump said, “Leaders are people who can discern the inevitable and act accordingly. When people talk about business acumen, discernment is a big part of it. It’s a bit like gut instinct, but a little more developed.”  Gay Hendricks in his book The Corporate Mystic talks about the importance of leaders learning to trust their gut.

Most of us have been taught to disregard what our bodies tell us. Some of us have even been taught the opposite. That we should never listen to what our bodies tell us but only make decisions based on hard core evidence. Would you like to be more comfortable making decisions? Learning to trust you gut is one of the best tools you have for making reliable decisions.

Just try it for a moment. Start with the more obvious. Do you have a headache? Is you stomach growling because lunch is long overdue? Now, what else are you noticing? Are you holding tension anywhere? Does any part of you feel heavy of constricted or open or expansive? Many of us hold tension in our upper back and neck for instance.

Once we learn to listen to our bodies we can gain all sorts of information. Our bodies receive information even before our brains receive the information. Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor, a neurosurgeon, wrote My Stroke of Insight. In her book, she describes how our bodies actually produce chemical reactions which allow us to feel different emotions such as anger, sadness and fear in different parts of our bodies.
Learning to Trust My Gut

Your next question may be so if I listen to my body what do I do with that information.  Great question.   We’ll talk about that another day.

Until next time,
