Get Lucky: How to Put Planned Serendipity to Work for You and Your Business

Skill 4: Commitment

Commitment is the ability to choose, from among the ever-widening set of options in front of us, the right ones to focus on. When we commit, we reveal ourselves publicly in the pursuit of our goals, and by exposing a strong point of view we transform the environment around us. We create awareness of our intentions in others, which often stirs up latent desires in them as well. By connecting our inner world to everything happening outside of it, we explode the likelihood of new and unexpected combinations of events and opportunities.
