Keeping My Promises

Posted on July 23, 2014

Something that I am learning.. Keeping promises to ourselves is just as important as keeping our promises to other people. You are important, I am important.

"Integrity is, fundamentally, the value we place on ourselves. It's our ability to make and keep commitments to ourselves, to 'walk our talk'. It's honor with self, the essence of proactive growth." Stephen R Covey (Choose to Lose, Chris Powell pg 34)

Yes...I believe this 100%. This was my missing link all these years (I've been struggling for 20 years). My promises are to workout 6 days per week (at least 15 min.), drink at least 80oz. of water daily, and eat 5 healthy meals per day (always including a protein, whole grain carb or fruit, and or veggies, and "healthy" fat). All very realistic and doable promises so I find myself working out 60 minutes on many days (that's gravy) and feeling amazing about myself (again 15 minutes is all I NEED to do right now) . I've kept those promises for 33 days and have lost 22 pounds. I have a mini goal to lose 17 more by mid November (My own "phase 2" goal). I plan to be my ideal weight by April 2015...making mini goals to achieve along the way while keeping promises. THANK YOU for sharing this post, KEEPING MY PROMISES:) Personal integrity is everything!!!
