What are you committed to? What will you do - no matter what else happens - every day?

Commitment usually comes up in relationships. Yet,the most important relationship we have is the one with ourself. How are you doing in that one? Do you tend to commit to others and then slide on your word or commitment to yourself?

I do. I have. And, I'm aware of it now. We can't build Trust with ourSelf unless we commit to ourSelf. Commit and keep our word to ourSelf.

Self-Trust is the driver that sees my dreams and visions through to reality. It's the fuel that keeps me movin forward even when it's tough, or I don't feel like it, or there's too much on my plate already.

Yet, when I commit to something, it tends to get done.

Goal setting has never been motivating to me. However, when I make a commitment to greet the sky each morning and stretch and touch my toes, breathing in connection to the stars, sun, moon, Earth, I know it's the foundation of my day. Things tend to be easier. I'm grounded and in the flow.

I can expand the practice or leave it at the basic 1 minute one. But, it's daily. It's a sign of commitment to Momentum and Trust in Self and the Universe's support and my work in the world.

While listening to a spiritual teacher yesterday who talked about Commitment, I got it. There's lots of things I say I want to do, I am doing or are written in my journal, but what am I committed to?

A few months back, I actually held my own Commitment Ceremony. I placed a ring that had been sitting in my jewelry drawer for ages on my finger and said "This ring symbolized my Commitment to Me, My Work in the World, and to Consciously Receiving Support from all helpful allies (seen and unseen). I asked for guidance and blessing on this Commitment/Marriage/Union and now, when looking at it daily, feeling its weight heavy on my right index finger, remember the Commitment and Meaning. It's become a touchstone.

Listen in as I relay a bit more of the story and meaning and the importance Authentic Commitment (to yourSelf first) plays to uplevel your Life.
