Commit.
Things I find easy to commit to:
- Eating breakfast everyday
- Petting my cat everyday
That list is embarrassing.
This morning I was miraculously able to peel myself out of bed at the ass crack of dawn and get to yoga. While I was busy breathing in and out and trying not to think about how much I wanted coffee, my beautiful instructor mentioned something that I’ve always had issue with: and have never really known why.
Commitment.
This is something that really bothers me, because I desperately want to be one of those people who signs up for marathons and commits to training for 6 months or has a favorite color and it’s just always been their favorite color. I really want to be one of those people who looks at things as permanent. For me, everything just kind of seems temporary. Like my attention span for babies, temporary.
*Disclaimer: I’m not talking about boys, for once. Ain’t nobody got time to pay attention to more than one boy at a time, one is enough. Everyone calm down.
The other day my friend asked what I was doing in June… JUNE. I have no idea.
Hopefully in June, I’ll be 10 pounds lighter and dancing in a bikini on a yacht.
I can’t commit to anything because what if Tom Hardy falls in love with me and I move to London? You can’t limit yourself.
So here’s my (very late) New Years Resolution: commit to things. Maybe not even things, maybe just one thing.
Should I start small? I (once again) have no idea. Okay here’s the plan:
Step 1: figure out what commitment is. (and why)
Step 2: pick something to commit to that has a short time span (but WHAT!?)
Step 3: commit to it.
Simple.
If anyone else has commitment issues or if you’re super good at committing to things, please tell me your secrets.
