Can Commitment Set Us Free?

Have you ever found yourself endlessly debating and hesitating on a decision? Abby Falik shares her journey from “teetering on the edge” to liberation through the act of commitment. She paints a vivid picture of how “the irony of commitment is that it’s deeply liberating,” and shares anecdotes of personal commitments that redefine her freedom. From small pacts like taking the stairs, to life-changing ones like marriage and motherhood, commitment freed her from her internal critic. Inspired by birds, Abby invites us to fly fearlessly and trust our instincts. Her story makes you wonder: what if committing could help you soar, too?

Be The Change

Reflect on an area in your life where fear holds you back. Make a small but meaningful commitment today, like reaching out to a friend or starting a new hobby, and observe how it changes your perspective.
