“A commitment is a pledge to do something, right? It's a form of putting your ass on a line every day, then having the self-discipline to keep your ass there and keep you on track. But most people are interested in real estate. Most people are interested in making more money. Most people are interested in keeping more of their money. They're not committed to it because being committed means you have to take ownership of that.” – Dave Houser
