Step 3 // Commit

ONLINE

Turn will & life over = pre-commitment

The Step: Decide to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God.

Game theory: This is pre-commitment. You lock in a rule before temptation shows up, so you don’t renegotiate mid-crisis.

SCIENCE: why it helps

• Fewer bad trades: pre-commitment blocks impulse overrides.

• Less decision fatigue: the rule is already chosen.

• More follow-through: identity + commitment increase consistency.

Plain terms: “I decide ahead of time who’s in charge — so cravings don’t get a vote.”
