"Committed action is a step-by-step process of acting to create a life of integrity, true to one’s deepest wishes and longings."

​

Commitment involves both persistence and change— whichever is called for to live in alignment with one’s values in specific contexts.

​

Commitment also includes engaging in a range of behaviors. This is important because moving in valued directions often requires being flexible, rather than rigidly persevering in unworkable actions."
