My son is a pianist. Classically trained. And partial as I am to him, he is very very good.
I asked him once, “What would you do if you didn’t play the piano?”
Long pause followed and he finally replied, “What would I do?”
That’s commitment. No plan B in his master plan.
He might find different ways to play a piece, but he is determined to play the piece.
When there is no turning back or turning aside, the public speaker will find a way.
Finding a way no matter what, as in absolutely no matter what, requires commitment. And commitment fosters creativity.
Make a commitment and stick to it.
