Recommitted

There are certain times when I’ve had to recommit. It’s not as if I made a decision to stop or quit my current task, but when things become more challenging, I’ve had to recommit. I had to make a decision(to cut off) to put forth more effort, more time, more energy, more of everything.

When things get to a point when it seems as if it may be just as easy to stop and walk away or to muster your remaining reserves, that part of yourself you didn’t even know existed. To put forth effort, courage and resolve in a way others admire. To walk boldly into the unknown, knowing He is there, a constant companion and chaperone.

Today, Saturday, March 21, 2020, I am grateful that:

All my needs are met today. It’ll be interesting in the days and weeks to come but all we have is the present.

If/when I’m in need, I’m willing to ask for assistance. “No man is an island unto himself” and I’m no different. We all need each other, for varying reasons.

Time and time again, I’m learning the importance of commitment, to myself, to my craft, and most importantly, to do my best. I’ve fallen short on the latter over the last month or so and that’s ok. It’s not a condition I would like to live in but it’s an honest assessment of prior behavior. So I’ll move with intent and purpose on doing and being my best.

How do you recommit? To your family, yourself, your career, your community?

What things can you do today to make the life of someone else easier, less challenging?

Be Great. Be Grateful!!!
