Commitment

It was my intention, my commitment, that even if a door was closed I would bang on it, I would break the door, or I would get in through the window. There was no way that I would not make that happen.

You automatically commit to something if you really want it enough. You don't even have to think about it, you just jump right into it. If there's a movie you're desperate to see, it takes no effort for you to commit to go to a theatre and see it. When you fall head over heels in love, you can't stop yourself from commitment to see the other person.

The one thing about the activities we pursue on the ocean is they're very committed. You don't kind of ride a wave; you either ride it or you don't. Every wave and every ride is a belief and commitment. You're taking that leap.

There's something about deciding that whatever you have at the moment is enough to do whatever it is you need to do. If you always think you're missing one more thing, if you think, " I have to have this in order to, in order to," you're waiting for the right time. There is no right time. The right time is never in the future. It is now. And your full commitment is the cue that opens the doors to your dream. It will never happen the other way around. Until you make a commitment, you will only see walls.

You have to really commit. You can't do it halfheartedly. When you really commit, every sinew in your body, your subconscious mind, and your conscious mind, whether you're awake or dreaming, is working toward whatever you are trying to achieve. And that makes a difference.

If you make a full commitment to your dream, doors will open. I actually think that doors have always been there, but when you fully commit you see them.
