A Scary Word - Commitment

Okay,  I've finally done it! I've volunteered some time to help others, so now I've committed myself. We frequently hear and read about a committment-phobe, which I've always linked to relationships. But I'm wondering now - does it apply to other areas? Work, maybe? Friends? I remember a friend who was astounded when people who had accepted her wedding invitation just didn't turn up. There was no urgent or solid reason for it - apparently they changed their minds and failed to let her know.
Do we avoid committment? If so, I believe it's time to knuckle down and do what we say we will do. That's what I'm giving this week - I will do what I've promised to do, even if I don't feel like it.
