Commitment Quote by T Joseph Benziger

“When we start doing something seriously, others assume that we have already committed fully to the task. If we give it up just like that, it would create a poor impression in their minds about our reliability. And, we shall have to blame only ourselves for this!” quote by T Joseph Benziger
