Fundamental Success scripts being true to your word is easy

Say you’re going to do something and then do it. If you make plans to meet your friend, don’t ditch him for some random date. Likewise, if you commit to go on a date with someone, don’t back out at the last minute for no good reason. If you don’t want to commit, don’t commit. If you’re not sure whether you can, check and see. If circumstances change and you have to adapt or postpone the arrangement, that’s fine too. If someone doesn’t want to make an appointment and then realize he’d rather chill instead. He doesn’t want to give you your word because, in the back of his mind, he knows his word doesn’t mean much. So he’d rather just string you along. Motivator Phil Jenecic says that  being a slave of your word is just another way of saying being true to your word. And no matter much Chrises of the world try to convince you it’s a bad thing, it’s a virtue. Don’t be a normal person. Be the person others can depend on. In other words, become the master of your word.
