Being committed to growth means that you are willing to question yourself and others; to think philosophically and critically, rather than just react to events; and to go by reason rather than by sheer "instinct."

Being committed to lifelong personal growth is the most important commitment one can make. Without it, there will be no success or happiness in your personal or career relationships.

Being committed to growth means you will have the most productive and fulfilling life possible. Without this commitment, your life and your relationships will be filled with frustration and disappointment. With this commitment, you're most likely to find the right people with whom to associate.
