Having An Impact: Be Faithful in Commitments

Okay, as the other things I’ve been addressing in this “series”, this one may be the most difficult. “Commitments” can include a wide range of promises, from short to long-term. Some are easy and then those that are hard. Of course, it falls in line with "helping others".
 
We all make commitments. I commit to making sure that that I do my daily duties. I also commit to my responsibilities. I’ve committed my life to loving and faithful my wife, and also taking care of my kids. I commit to doing my job at the workplace.
 
There are other things too. I often commit to duties and projects to others. I just have to be sure to follow through. That’s the hard part. My mind often forgets, and I’m also a professional procrastinator. I’m constantly trying to better myself in this area.
 
I’m often a “yes man” when it comes to others asking me to do favors. I admit that I’m often a people-pleaser, and enjoy helping others. However, I’ve also learned that there are times that I have to politely say ‘No”. This way, I can be more thoughtful and faithful in those commitments I make.
 
Yes, I have committed to be better at honoring my commitments!
