One thing I’m getting better at, finally, at 42 years old, is commitment.
The main problem I had with commitment before is that I committed to do too much, too often.
Today, I’m far more likely to say ‘We’ll see’, ‘It depends’, ‘Maybe’, or ‘I will have to think about this a bit’, than ‘Yes!’ or ‘I will do [insert XYX] for you.’
Saying yes is great, but it’s even better when you are actually going to follow through on it.
