If

I can't keep a promise to myself, how can I trust myself? If I can't keep a promise to myself, can I keep promises for other people? Can other people trust me? If I can't keep a promise to myself, how can I expect other people to keep my promises? Are these things important?

it has been my observation that i am MUCH better at keeping promises to others than to keeping promises to myself. when you break a promise to yourself, you may be the only one to know. when you break a promise to another, you impact them as well as yourself.

ultimately, only the promises to yourself allow you to measure where you are. the promises to others allow those around you to love you and appreciate you for what you do for them. unless they know about your promises to yourself, they can't judge you or honor you when you make it or don't, only you can...
