Why to take a commitment?

A warm greeting to all of you and a loud happy new year!😄

New year 2021 is approaching and surely you have made some plans to execute, some new habit to inculcate and something new, unique to start. So, I will tell you why it is important to commit it. and why you must not end it till writing it on paper, telling it to someone or making up plan in mind.

Okay, So WHY COMMITE?

On Google commitment mean, "an engagement or obligation that restricts freedom of action". Yes, restriction of freedom of action, for some higher purpose. Actually, some restriction is necessary otherwise we will end up in doing everything ad hoc and unplanned which us nowhere. 

This is a natural tendency of this world, that everything thing falls down. Thus, we must have something which pumps us from time to time. And, your commitment can do this for you.

When you take a commitment, this thought will stick to you and you will be propelled.

In hard times when you feel unease in completing your task, then this commitment will motivate you.

There can be other emotions like love, hatred, fear involved behind commitment but generally, either we take it to our ego or we will work for sake of duty that. And, thus in any way we will be fulfilling our commitment.

So, Now a question arises, HOW TO TAKE A COMMITMENT?

Very easy process. You, just find answers of WH-family questions i.e. why, what, how, when, where, which, etc.

Let's understand it through an example.

Say, you felt that you are very less aware of my surroundings.

wait, so here is answer of  "WHY".

For this, you will think, do some research, take advice and discuss from others. And say, you come up with a very unique way, read newspaper/news. This answers "WHAT"

This is not enough. You should also workout that, "HOW" will you read news, from newspaper or from mobile. Sometimes newspaper is not available so you decide to go with phone applications.

Which phone application? Say, Inshorts.

When? In the morning. NO, no. Be more precise. Okay, you will read it between 8:00 am and 10:00 am.

How much time? 30 minutes. Hmm good.

Where? In the balcony. Perfect.

Now, write this on a paper and take its screenshot and stick it to your wall. And say to yourself that, "I will put all my efforts to fulfill this commitment". Ans its done!

Sometimes it happen that answer to that "WHY" may seem very blurry and not motivating. Donot worry, just say to yourself, "Ek baar jo commitment mne krdi, uske baad me apne app ki bhi nhi sunta" and keep doing your work.

You can also answer some more question to the list to make it more consolidated. You can also ask some other trustworthy person to take follow up of your commitment.

Try to complete the commitment. If in some situation it couldnot be completed, donot go like Devdas or mad.😂

I hope, this might prove effective for you. Donot forget to share your commitment (if you want). 

Disclaimer: I have not read this technique anywhere, but just make it my own. And definitely, this has proved better than just thinking a plan.
