"We promise according to our hopes and perform according to our fears." - Francois de la Rochefoucauld
Commitment.  We often like to give up the things that are most important to us because it feels like the easier road.  Each time we don't respect and listen to ourselves, the more baggage gets accumulated. What is important to you?  What parts of your life seem to be stuck?  This is where you've broken a commitment to yourself and the baggage looms......choose another way of approaching that which you don't want to see.
