Commitment is unsexy, uncool, old-fashioned. Why commit to a loving but flawed partner when there are endless romantic options to swipe through on the apps? Why double down on finishing a difficult project when you could be scrolling TikTok, streaming Netflix, or starting a new, more exciting idea? We live in a world of limitless distraction, infinite possibility, a barrage of options and choices always available. So why does it still feel like something is missing?Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt;As a gold medal winning Olympic gymnast and a former NFL pro, husband and wife team Shawn Johnson and Andrew East know a thing or two about committing. And with Plt;iPgt;The Courage to CommitPlt;/iPgt;, theyP#8217;re here to prove just how contrarian committing can be in an age of dopamine-chasing impatience. Through scientific studies and personal stories, Shawn and Andrew show readers why commitment matters, how it works, and the strategies and tactics to get things doneP#8212;so you can become the type of person who gets that promotion, enjoys a rewarding marriage, and achieves that long-held dream. In short, so you can move beyond fear and find the freedom, meaning, and joy we all crave.Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt;This isnP#39;t a book about cold plunges or intermittent fasting or meditation. Instead, Plt;iPgt;The Courage to CommitPlt;/iPgt; makes a simple case for sticking with the things that matter. Because in a world of options and distraction, the real rebellion is choosing your hill to die onP#8212;and then planting your flag there with gusto.
