FULLY COMMITTED

You may have heard the story about the world's most dedicated fisherman.
He had out-fished his companion all morning long. They used the same live
bait, the same equipment and fished together in the same mountain stream.

But he had almost caught his limit of fish while his friend had yet to
catch even one.

"What's your secret?" asked the friend. "I haven't even gotten a bite!"

The angler mumbled an unintelligible answer, causing his companion to ask
again.

The successful fisherman emptied the contents of his mouth into a cupped
hand and replied: "I said, 'You have to keep your worms warm.'"

That's commitment! But did you know there are at least three types of
fishermen? First, there are those who fish only for sport. They usually
"catch and release," quickly throwing their catch back into the water.

Then there are those who fish because they like the taste of fish. They
are selective. They only keep those fish they will someday eat.

Finally, there are those who fish in order to eat. If they don't succeed
in catching fish, they skip a meal. It is this group of people who are
most likely to succeed, for they approach their task with earnest dedication.

Whether or not we fish or even eat fish, the lesson is the same. We are
most likely to succeed at a particular endeavor if we approach it
wholeheartedly.

Especially if the task before us is difficult or there seems little
likelihood of success. Whether we want to patch a relationship, build a
new business, write that first novel, kick a drug habit, or go back to
school, we must decide if our task is important enough to commit to it.

"Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more
important than any other one thing," said Abraham Lincoln. For often, we will
succeed only after we have fully resolved to do something.

The question we should ask ourselves is, "Just how much do I want this?"
For not every job we do or task we attempt is worthy of complete
dedication.

We may choose to give lesser priorities less attention in order to give
more of ourselves to those greater causes.

Other questions to ask are: "How will it affect me if I fail at this
thing?" and "Am I willing to be fully committed in order to succeed?" For
only in the dictionary does "success" come before "work."

Remember, when you are fully committed, the impossible can happen.
