Being committed is so very important for anything that we take on in life. Staying committed is always the hard work. It is easy to create a commitment to something, to say with your word that you will do or accomplish something. For example, the creating of a new profession like what I have done is my most immediate commitment. However, the work in to stay committed to the creation or new venture even when there is no immediate payoff.
As I am in the process of creating a new profession for myself and my life, the transformation of Enhanced Healing, there is no immediate payoff appearing. The dream is to be able to create the music that I love, help others to use and get the benefit from it and also, to make a living doing it. The creation of the music is there. What is not showing up yet is the payoff, in this case, the financial rewards that are so very necessary to sustain the venture.
My work on a daily basis is to stay committed even when the financial payoff is not appearing at the moment. Part of this process does involve the creation of faith, faith that the financial rewards will eventually start to appear. While patience is so very important in endeavors of this nature, faith is absolutely necessary. Creating faith that the rewards will appear even in the face of no immediate payoff can be difficult. For me this involves staying in the possibility, the possibility of the creation of my music and the financial reward for my efforts, faith that both will eventually appear together.
What keeps me in possibility and faith is that the primary commitment is the actual creation of the music and the good it will do for others. I could have my primary commitment to be the financial reward but I believe further that such a primary focus would get in the way of what the creation is truly all about. The financial rewards are secondary to the creation itself. It is important for me to make that distinction and stay with it. Worrying about the financial commitment not showing up eventually makes that concern the primary commitment.
