there’s an old business fable about
0:11
commitment first time i heard it was
0:14
years ago i was watching a video of
0:15
Dartmouth’s rowing coach he was telling
0:17
a story to inspire his team and
0:19
basically in this story there’s a father
0:22
there’s a son they’re sitting down at
0:24
breakfast and the son says dad I’m
0:27
learning about commitment versus
0:29
contribution in school right I’m trying
0:31
to grasp it but I can’t quite understand
0:33
the difference father thinks about it
0:36
for a minute he says look down at your
0:37
plate what do you see voices ham and
0:41
eggs father says well that chicken made
0:45
a contribution to your breakfast that
0:48
pig made a commitment he then goes on to
0:52
tell his team to row like pigs and that
0:55
simple metaphor created a foundation for
0:58
everything that’s come through my life
1:00
since then right in anything we do
1:03
there’s the option to go all-in or to
1:06
walk the line to hedge your bets and
1:09
people so often leave or quit when
1:11
something becomes difficult because
1:14
there’s another door they’ve left open
1:16
right there’s an easier way an escape
1:17
route but let me ask you this do you
1:21
think if it was a life or death
1:23
situation I say you needed water to
1:25
survive would you give up after looking
1:27
for three hours and coming up empty
1:29
handed of course not you keep looking
1:32
because life depended on right there’s
1:35
no other options available there’s this
1:38
old saying that if you want to take the
1:40
island burn the ships commit and it’s
1:44
not until you do this that things truly
1:46
begin to change that progress is made at
1:50
the highest level
1:54
you simply cannot hit toe to success you
1:58
can’t sneak up behind it you have to own
2:02
it right go after what you want like the
2:05
world is on fire like your universe
2:07
revolves around making this happen I
2:10
have never in my 28 years of existence
2:13
seen a lion walk up to a gazelle and I
2:17
hope that it falls over right in a taxi
2:20
with everything that has speed strength
2:23
tenacity that’s what brings home the
2:26
prize if you and your goals are one if
2:31
they are not the same that’s a pretty
2:34
good indicator that you are fighting the
2:36
wrong fight you should live and breathe
2:40
your dreams inhale and exhale them they
2:44
should live at the forefront of your
2:46
mind where every thought that comes
2:49
through your head should be in the
2:51
context of that tree that basic question
2:55
how bad do you want it well if you’re
2:58
not willing to fully commit to dive into
3:01
something then that gives you a pretty
3:03
good answer right out of it
3:04
you can talk about our spent routines
3:07
Cabot’s but if you aren’t passionate
3:10
about what you want if you don’t immerse
3:13
yourself in it none of that really
3:16
matters live how you need to live do
3:21
what you need to do be who you need to
3:24
be to make your dreams real fully commit
3:28
to excellence because until you do that
3:30
you will be left with only a vision and
3:33
a false sense of reality winners don’t
3:36
have time for that okay set your mind to
3:40
your target and crush it that is the
3:42
only awesome
