You Only Live Once... So Commit

The Happiness Lab with Dr. Laurie Santos

NOTE

You Only Live Once

Mickey has observed that sticking things out comes with a second big benefit. As Pete Davis explained earlier, committing yourself to one particular person or ranch or craft or career allows the thing you committed to to open itself up to you./nIf you don't make that step, the doors will never open. You don't know what door is going to open, but there will be doors that open that are fantastic./nMickey is the first to admit that it takes faith to trust the power of your commitments and that your psychological immune system will be there to catch you if you fall. It takes courage to go where you've never been before and do what you've never done before or do something and commit to it with everything you have. But that's okay because that's the fun of all of it. That's life.
