# The key to growth, high performance and real impact is commitment.

As a young entrepreneur I had a mentor who used to tell me, *“If you treat your business casually, you will become a casualty of your business.” *

This advice has stuck with me for nearly 20 years and with time I have found it to be applicable in many areas beyond business.

If you treat your health casually, you will become a casualty.

If you treat your personal and professional growth casually, you will become a casualty.

If you treat your marriage casually, you will become a casualty.

If you treat parenting casually, then your kids will become a casualty.

*The key to growth, high performance and real impact is commitment.*

True commitment opens doors, gains followers and extends positive influence.

The Commitment Scale asks us to assess where we are living.   
At a level of distraction? Constantly being pulled away by every distraction.

At a level of decision? Making a decision plants your flag. It cuts off other options and gives you direction.

At a level of discipline? Where we follow through and choose consistency.

At a level of devotion? Where you are driven by purpose. Where you don’t treat things casually, you are fully committed.

*It is devotion that builds brands, loyal followers, committed teams and leaves a legacy.*

*Don’t be casual.*
