Keeping Your Promises

Last week, if you did some thinking and writing about how you feel when you don’t keep promises, this week, think about how it feels when you do keep promises. For example, what does it feel like when:

• You do something you don’t enjoy, but know you promised?

• You follow up on something because you made a commitment?

• You follow up on a commitment you made to yourself even though no one else will know you did so?

This week, do some writing about how it makes you feel when you keep a promise to others as well as to yourself. 

Next time you are about to make a promise, consider these words of advice:   

• It is easy to make promises - it is hard work to keep them. (Boris Johnson)

• Keep every promise you make and only make promises you can keep. (Anthony Hitt)
