Committing to providing connections can sometimes lead to using connections and attachments as collateral, especially when one doesn't feel important enough to carry the weight alone. This can result in spreading oneself too thin, running ragged to gain access to people or events, often without genuine interest but rather for reciprocal benefits like follow-for-follow or invite-for-invite exchanges.

Overcommitment in various areas such as VIP engagements, coaching, or commitments to others can lead to exhaustion and neglect of personal desires or goals. Despite wanting growth, individuals may find themselves overwhelmed with too many commitments, stretching themselves thin to maintain it all.
