Keeping Commitments Gets You Poppin'!

Your Word Is Your Bond

Every day of our lives', we make promises and break them. Whether or not it's intentional, it happens. It happens so often that people are starting to make a habit out of it and are beginning to reduce the importance of keeping their Word. This isn't right!

Your Word Is Your Bond.

How strongly you keep your Word is a portrayal of your morals and also determines how you're seen and approached as well as trusted by others. Keeping your Word also helps you build relationships and gain resources. Here is the best way that can help you stick to your Word and make you become a more trustworthy person:

Quick Action
The best way which you can be sure to keep your Word is to act on it as quickly as possible. Find ways to back it up. Even if your first act is a small one, at least the person knows that you meant what you said and your actions to follow are due to be even greater.

Here are also some essentials that you must do when acting on your Word:



Stay Within Your Width
When making a promise to someone or even yourself or if you're just guaranteeing something, make sure that it's something you know that you're capable of to avoid any disappointment. If you do want to do something slightly beyond you then that's good but just make sure that you make that clear to the person. Don't leave someone thinking you're going to do an expert job when you're only an intermediate.

All In Or Nothing

When you've given someone your word that you're going to do something for them, you must put your all in! Don't think that just because you're doing them a favour that you can do the bare minimum and expect them to be satisfied, no! You gave them your Word so you must put your all in, if not then tell them that you can't do it instead of disappointing them.

Your Word can be anything as small as a pinky promise or anything as big as a contract but no matter what, the key thing to remember about keeping your Word is that the more you break it, the harder it is for you to become a better person.

Task for the day: Do something now that helps and makes sure that you keep your Word to someone or something, act on it.
