The world will tell you that you need more to be happy; You’ll need more people, money, possessions, and success. This is actually the complete opposite of the truth.

Commitment is the most rewarding and fulfilling endeavor you can take on. Ask yourself what you value most. Then, commit yourself to the idea of what you want most from your life. Let all of the other choices that don’t fit into your vision fall away. Dedicate your focus to making your simplistic life goals happen. This is how you will succeed.

You want love? Commit yourself to a partner and work together building a healthy, lasting relationship. You desire a successful career? Dedicate all of your effort to developing the skills necessary. You need to get healthier? Learn about proper nutrition and devote your free time to exercise.

Don’t spend your time chasing illusions. You have the power to choose exactly what you want your life to look like. Start achieving your goals by living simply.
