Lifesmithing

Lifesmithing is an approach to personal development based on Commitment Theory—the observation that humans are uniquely capable of making and satisfying commitments.

Unlike traditional self-help strategies that offer pre-made solutions, lifesmithing provides a mental model for understanding and inspecting your personal challenges ("locks"), and then guides you in crafting custom solutions ("keys").

Through small, sustainable commitments rather than overwhelming overhauls, lifesmithing enables you to navigate modern chaos and build systems that evolve with you. While offering this foundational perspective, lifesmithing also provides practical advice by sharing proven solutions for common challenges.
