Conscious commitment begins the process of positive change and relational and organizational resolution. We define commitment using its Latin origin, committere, which means to gather one's energy and move it in a chosen direction. Using this definition, we view commitment as an energetic experience and not a moral issue. We invite you to embrace these 15 commitments as your entry-gate into "By Me," a life free of victimhood. Following each commitment is the "To Me" commitment; the way people show up when they are living and leading (either consciously or unconsciously) from the belief that life is happening to them.
