#327: Why Humans Fear Commitment
In this episode, I dive deep into the subject of commitment. Not just in the sense of committed romantic relationships—but the fear of commitment to ourselves and our truth, extrapolating it to every area of your life. Your fear to commit to a dream, to a possibility, to a relationship, to your purpose, to a goal—all of these are the same process. Understanding what lies at the base of our fears of commitment can allow us to become more committed people, more disciplined, more discerning, and move forward and create things we never thought were possible but always desired.
Sentence starters I share in this episode:
—When I love people, they…
—When I love people, I…
—When I let people love me, they…
—When I let people love me, I…
