Commitment is more than just saying you will. Commitment is more than just good intentions. It is more than trying. Commitment is doing whatever is necessary, for as long as necessary, to get the job done. Commitment doesn't bail out at the first sign of trouble.
Commitment stays on course, moving steadily through good times and bad.
Commitment doesn't make excuses or look for the easy way out. It finds a way through every obstacle. Commitment doesn't wait for someone else to take up the slack. Commitment makes things happen whatever the circumstance. True commitment isn't stopped when the effort becomes tiring, boring, uncomfortable, unpleasant, tedious, perilous or unpopular.
