What do you want to accomplish in 2019? Whether they are big or small initiatives are they worth making a commitment to, or just a hopeful idea?

There is one truth I know for sure, without commitment there is no growth, magic, love or fascination in our lives. For years when I have lost my way, I re-read this:

Commitment by Goethe

“Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back—Concerning all acts of initiative and creation, there is one elementary truth that ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too.

All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamed would have come his way.

Whatever you can do, or dream you can do, begin it.
Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. Begin it now.”
