Commitment is the means by which people live out intentions. People are always committed. There is no such thing as an uncommitted person. The challenge of commitment is to become aware of what the individual is really committed to.

World class executives and teams know that commitment begins with a person speaking his or her intentions and ends in the results of their actions. If one sets out to “try” to accomplish a goal or “maybe” do something, there is not much chance of it being accomplished. When people are clear about their commitment, they are action oriented, do their job, and maintain integrity.
