Commitment

Successful execution requires commitment

Integrate The 7 Habits of Successful Execution into your life and work. These practical execution habits can be used by you to attain your goals and make your plans come alive in any situation that you find yourself in.

The simplicity of these habits will increase your productivity and effectiveness.

When you are fully committed to accomplishing your goals – personal or work, attaining them will be easier. Your choices will become clearer as you are motivated to make your plans come alive.

For example, if your goal is to become the top salesperson, then the choice between finishing work when everyone else does or staying an extra hour to make courtesy calls may not be easy but it must be done to achieve your goals. You are both committed and motivated by future success to come.

These practical habits create a repeatable system for you to be successful. When you consciously make a choice today to be successful and take appropriate action, the fruits of your decision will show in the future.

But when you are not fully committed to your goals, the choices you make will become hazy. Ultimately, your ideas, plans and strategies will not be implemented.

Being committed means doing whatever it takes. It will mean making those extra phone calls or jogging around the block or working longer hours even when you do not feel like it.

However, being committed to achieving your goals and making those plans come alive is not easy. It will take considerable effort, sacrifices and time on your part.

That is why most people make so few commitments. They often have serious trouble keeping the commitments they make. Commitment demands strong habits and accountability. This is why accountability is the core habit.

When you accept a commitment, it should be with ‘do or die’ determination. Real commitment takes courage, sacrifice, and relentless perseverance.

When you are fully committed, everything is possible!
