They matter - and when you get used to them they become like an addiction. And when you stop them suddenly, like an addiction, you go through withdrawal.
Just a proof that the most important thing we can do, when we commit, is show up - consistently.
As I think about it… perhaps “routine” is not the right word. A routine is only the end product of the bigger thing we need to do - commit.
Perhaps what we crave is people in our lives who commit - commit to showing up, to serve, to do the thing we need them to do, to make the change only they can make.
When others say to you, “you need to commit to a routine,” what they’re actually saying is, “why are you so afraid of showing up?”
