Episode 156: What Happens When You Are Committed to Being Overcommitted?

Boundaries, Mindset, Podcasts

The concept of commitment is an interesting beast. It’s never something I’ve struggled with personally. I’m a pretty committed person, and it actually isn’t a problem for many people. What I find most of my clients struggling with is overcommitment. They become so driven for success that they overdue it. So in this episode, I want to address how I’ve created success for myself by being 100% committed to a lot less.

3:20 – How I’m being very committed to being non-committed

6:59 – Where I see so many people run into problems with overcommitment

8:17 – The key component to following through on your commitments

10:06 – What to do if you’re struggling to achieve your goal(s) despite being so committed

11:37 – Why I see discipline as an act of self-love

13:42 – Is it a commitment problem or an impatience problem?

16:26 – A way to achieve what you want that goes against conventional wisdom
