I had to pay a deposit when I agreed to climb Gunung Kinabalu.
Although it was only a small amount, it was a sign of my commitment.
That I was seriously committed.
I am not backing out and will do my best to complete the climb.
Sebab deposit dah bayar, I started my training for the climb and also started researching what equipments do I need for the climb.
Alhamdulillah my preparation was good and I reached the summit last month.
Many times when we have a big project to do we will say to ourselves ‘I will do it one day’.
And this ‘one day’ is always tomorrow rather than today.
So instead of saying ‘I will do it one day’ or ‘ I have added it to the list of things to do’, make a small deposit to tell yourself that you are now committed to it.
If you want to start being more physically active, pay the deposit for a personal trainer.
If you want to do an MBA, pay the booking fee to join the programme at the local university.
Once you are committed, then you are more likely to complete it successfully.
No more excuses.
