The thing is, people can commit to different things. A classic saying in recovery is "If you put as much effort into your recovery as you did your addiction you would be on top of the world" or whatever. Would you walk 4 hours to make it to a job interview like you would to pick up heroin? etc

Someone might be really into adorning their body with art, but maybe wont show up to crunch data and smile at customers.
