ABSTRACT

Next, distribute the handout ‘The power of commitment’ and a pen or pencil each. Allow the individuals about 10 minutes to complete it. Explain that you want them to think about and write down the commitments they would like to make in their personal, social and working lives. For example, to keep their room tidy, spend an evening each week with a friend, and take on a particular task at work. Ask them to try to make at least one pledge in each area. If they are not in employment, they might like to make a commitment about finding employment or leave this part blank.
