Side Chat: How to make yourself stick to your commitments

<p>Most of us are pretty good at <em>certain</em> kinds of commitments: We’ll be true to our partners, loving and supportive parents to all types of children (furry or human), dedicated family members, and diligent co-workers and leaders.</p> <p>Buuut then we’ll completely drop the ball when it comes to commitments to <em>ourselves.</em></p> <p>We get asked a lot, “How can I stay consistent when I commit to something?? It drives me nuts that I say I want to do something, and then can’t make myself keep doing it!”</p> <p>So, in today’s brand-new Side Chat, we’re diving into an easy adjustment you can make that will help you stay a little truer to <em>yourself</em>. We got into…</p> <ul> <li>How your efforts to stay consistent are, ironically, probably making it even <em>harder</em> to follow through.</li> <li>How to create a “menu of options” for getting things done that allows you more freedom and flexibility <em>without</em> throwing structure out the window.</li> <li>A few examples of how we’ve been using this new system, personally and with clients, and the positive results we’re seeing!</li> </ul> <p>And, completely unrelated, we had a 10-minute conversation at the beginning of this episode about an elephant in the room that, after three years of podcasting, we’d never actually talked about.</p> <p><a href="https://clarityonfire.com/stick-to-your-commitments" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Leave a comment</a> after you’ve listened to share how this landed with you, and what adjustments you might be making to your routine!</p> <p>JOIN THE CLARITY ON FIRE COMMUNITY!</p> <p>We’re now <a href="http://patreon.com/clarityonfire" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">on Patreon</a>!
