Thinking again about the meaning of commitment, I realized that my old bad eating and exercise habits were just as much a commitment as my new ones are. Success is less about willpower and more about commitment. You can fall off the wagon on any day, but if you are committed to a healthy lifestyle, you will climb right back on and default to your new lifestyle. It may take time to relieve yourself of your old commitment to unhealthy, self-destructive habits, but once you make a new commitment, and it becomes a habit, then it will seem stranger and stranger to go back to the old ways.
