If you think about the results or outcomes that you are receiving in any area of your life there will be a correlation to the level of commitment you are providing in that area.   I know that when I reflect on areas of my own life, whether it be when I was at school or in my career, business, relationships, finances or spiritual life, I have always achieved the best results or outcomes when I have been truly committed.   If you are not achieving the results or outcomes in any area of your life evaluate for a moment your level of commitment in that area. Be honest with yourself. Could you be committing more in those areas? Are you dedicating the necessary time, energy, and resources to achieve the results or outcomes that you want in that area?   There is a general tendency for people to be committed to areas that are already going well for them and to neglect or avoid committing to those areas that need some improvement.

During the last 6 days we travelled in a motor-home, you think it was big enough for the 3 of us, as it really sleeps 6. Yet I found myself feeling claustrophobic and battered from sitting in the back seat with our toddler. I had different expectations of our little mini holiday, just the 3 of us before our newest member joins us in less than 2 months time.
