“There is a cost to failing to keep your word, or breaking your promises and it is high. When you give your word people expect you to keep it. Your word is your bond! You only have your word, or your promise as a demonstration of the type of person you are. What else have you besides your promise to follow through on what you say? Actions speak louder than words. You have your word to give and nothing else. People are willing to trust in most cases until they learn you are not trustworthy. Don’t violate a person’s trust.
If you say, ‘I can or I will give money.’ The money is then promised. If you don’t give the money, you broke your word. This is NOT rocket science. If you go back on your word with any excuse or reason you demonstrate you cannot be trusted. While it is true there may be some extenuating circumstances but rarely more than once. Extenuating means to reduce the severity of the guilt. If you can’t be trusted to keep your word, what have you? What are you worth? It’d be better to not say anything than to break your word.
If you’re not going to take the trash out every Wednesday, as you promised yourself or someone, don’t say that you’re going to. The key to keeping your word to yourself is to find a way that allows you to win when you do but doesn’t gnaw away at you if you don’t. Perhaps, you promise to take the trash out every Wednesday unless something more important comes up. Then each week at the appropriate time you prioritize. If you don’t take the trash out, THEN it is because something truly more important has come up.
DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF
You’ve kept your promise to yourself. You acted on the first most important item on your list. Then the next. You will take the trash out as you knock off the items before it. This way you’re not only taking the trash out but, because you have prioritized, you are doing other important things as well. This makes it a win/win for you. Following through on what you say you will is important to your health and wellbeing. You need to work your plans and feel good about yourself. Find positive ways to always keep your word to yourself.
If you make a promise to another to take the trash out, you’d better have good reason not to. Find ways to always make good on your word to others. When you disappoint others because you didn’t do as you say there is a ripple effect. The same is true when you keep your word. BUT do you want to be the person no one will trust? Is that the reputation you desire? Consider the effect your words have on others. Consider what they feel like when you break a promise? The repercussions can travel far as they put the word out.
Do you want this? If not, keep your word. You can’t feel optimally if you disappoint yourself and others. No one wants to think, feel or be told (by yourself or someone else) ‘See I knew you’d let me down’. Your self-esteem suffers. Your self-image suffers. You begin to feel like a fraud. That is no way to live. Live feeling proud that you make good things happen whenever possible. You create and attract goodness for yourself and others. Ensure that your word is worth keeping.
