The fear of commitment is a perpetual state of avoidance. Whether it’s the hesitation to commit to a relationship or a career or a decision or whatever else, it’s like trying to drive through life with the parking brake on. In this episode, Teal explains what the fear of commitment is really about and how to let go of that fear so that you can commit to the things you wish to commit to.

I got chills when you said "You cannot get this life wrong." I realize I have been subconsciously believing this and I need to let that belief go. Thank you!!

I was watching this to help someone else... it ended up being about me.

This just nailed my entire life…beyond enlightening, Teal. Eighteen minutes that yielded greater help than five years of talk therapy.

story of my life. 23 years of being single, always avoid responsability, And never fully commit to what i like.

This woman read my entire 37 years on earth in under 6 minutes!!!! 🤯 I’m amazed. I now have hope. This video was published in 2015 and it took my desperation to understand myself and why I won’t commit that aligned me to this video in this moment. All the work I’ve done has opened my mind and heart to receive this message. I finally have hope in my ability to change my issues with committing. I’m very scared in this moment but I am also extremely exited. Thank you.

I'll be watching this one many times over.

[michelemedina]

I love this because it goes beyond something like commitment in a relationship ... It transfers to regular life and making decisions.

[luckieonline]

After watching this I realize that looking back, I haven't committed to much of anything out of fear of abandonment. If I don't give over all of my energy, then it can't be taken away. Now I realize that free will isn't about avoiding a commitment, its about choosing what we commit to. Think my life is about to change. Thank you Teal.

Aw thanks for this! afraid of commiting to a career path! I need to stop thinking of career paths as death sentences xp.

[rebekahclearwater]

I can’t thank you enough for this! This is going to change my life!!! 🙏🏼

“You cannot get this life wrong, so break free from the paralysis. You have been thinking that commitment is the thing that is going to trap you when in fact it is the very thing currently that is going to set you free!” 🙌🏼

where has this video been my whole life

[lookaroundyou]

Wow, I realized I have a problem with fear of relationships but always painted it with "I want to be free"

I grew up in an unloving home with a father who controlled everything we do, and seeing my mom watching this and not getting out of the toxic relationship she is in, made me realize there might never be a way out if u picked a wrong partner..

I promised myself at the age of 8 that I would never be in any relationship, that I would forever be single just to protect myself, and even tho I had some feelings and crushes on guys I made sure to never show it or express it.. I have never accepted a date in my life.

Am older now and I feel like I really can't yet overcome it, if anything it's worse, now I have my friends who are in terrible relationships and marriages that is literally destroying their lives, so the risk of it is not even worth at all compared to the risk of just being single..

I know it's not a healthy way to live in fear, and am sure have lost some good opportunities, but it's almost impossible to erase all the damage I have seen from relationships..

[RAWWANDERLUST]

Teal how do you do it. Literally, every week, your message is EXACTLY what i need to hear.

[deerinheadlights]

15:50 this brought me to tears. I feel very seen

[Rg]

This just changed my life. I don’t know how you know this, but even the sentences are from scenes of my life, even from this very week

…… I had no idea it was because of this but now I remember….. 9 years of lonely struggle!

[epiphanysoulguidanceb]

The inner critic in me because of my narcisstic mom... & I just wanna put this out there that Teal is NOT a narcisstic... I DON'T feel the mind trap from her that I have felt with a certain someone in my life. Your welcome, Teal!!! 💗💗💗

[edwardduda]
