“I have a commitment problem”
If you feel trapped by commitment, it’s probably because either:
- It’s not something you truly care about, and therefore someone else is making the decision for you (friends, family, coworkers)
- You’re committed to too many things, and so several of those commitments end up in bucket 1
Good to understand when to say no.

I usually feel on the opposite end of this. Unless it is someone I am “obligated” to commit to. A family event or something else that seems unnecessary.
Those “obligations” can quickly become cumbersome in many situations. They can be small things you feel obligated to go to for professional reasons, or large things that you default on- relationships, marriage, college, etc.
if you’re not overcommitted though, best not to worry about it altogether.
