"Keep Your Promises"
How often and how many times do your friends tell you things like he or she will help you or she /he will call you or will pay you back the money they owe you then finally they don’t ! How do you feel about friends like that? You lose respect for them. You don’t trust them. If you want other people to respect you, keep your promises. Avoid making commitment you don’t intend to keep. If someone asks you to do something, and you don’t want to do it, just tell them “Not this time but if I change my mind, I will let you know” This strategy keeps you from getting into awkward situations. It makes life simpler and saves you embarrassment. When you are careful about your promises your friends, your family and anyone begin to trust you. The bonus is that you begin to believe in yourself. Successful people don’t take themselves too seriously but they take their word very seriously.
When you look at a restaurant bill, you can eye the total due or you can focus on each item listed. Life is the same way. Some people like the big picture, and some like the details. You can think in terms of the totality of what you have accomplished, or you can think in terms of the momentary episode of your life. Adopt the focus that makes you feel more satisfied. If you thinking about things turned out all right! even though there were bumps in the road, think big picture. If you are not sure how it will turn out you know that your life has been marked with moments of great happiness and treasure, then focus on the details.
Every day leave yourself some time to enjoy, to be silly, to laugh, to happy. Watch children running around in the ground in the playground and you will soon be thinking, "They are having so much fun." Why are they having so much fun? The better question is, why aren't you having fun? Children run around and play as if by instinct. They do not question whether they should have fun. They just go out and do it. Adults have responsibilities, we are serious. Ask one of your friends to do something fun with you, and you might hear, “I don't have time for that." Imagine a child being asked if she wanted to go to the zoo and answering, "I'll have to get back to you or I'm really swamped right now." Sometimes children know better than we do. Having a little fun, a time a time for pure silliness and happiness, is an essential part of every day....
