Etymology
Committedness comes from the verb commit, which originally meant to 'give' or 'entrust' something to someone and is built from parts com- 'together' and mittere 'to send'. So being committed is like giving yourself to a person, cause, or goal, and committedness is the steady quality of staying loyal and focused.
