To fulfill some goals requires the accomplishment of the goal, consummating some achievement. To fulfill a dedication to become a millionaire one must become a millionaire; not merely keep hoping and trying. To become the most popular student in school one must actually do so, not merely strive for popularity. A dedication to becoming all knowing is not fulfilled unless you know more than each other person knows. A dedication to such goals can easily be frustrated by circumstances which are not under the control of the dedicated individual. There are appropriately transcendent goals to which we may become dedicated and factors beyond our control can not totally frustrate our dedication. All appropriately transcendent ideals are of such a character. It makes not sense to ultimately commit yourself to an ideal which can be totally frustrated by factors beyond your control. Life can not make sense in the face of such frustrations. Ultimate commitments should ultimately help us make sense of life even in the face of ultimate frustrations. It is appropriate to be ultimately committed to facilitate the development of both personal and communal integrity by sacrificial work to facilitate dialogue among differing people so that they can meaningfully integrate their differing perceptions, hopes, aspirations, fantasies, desires, emotions, ideals, etc. into a coherent whole. The dedication is appropriately to contributing to the process, not to achieving ultimate success. Others can not prevent one from making integrative contributions. The fruits which such contributions may bear may be beyond our control and we can still manage to make meaningful contributions to facilitating personal and communal integrity. "Success" is not the criteria for fulfillment. Fulfillment can come from being faithful to the commitment. Such is not always the case in the instance of commitments to less transcendent goals.
