If you keep brushing aside your needs and goals, what message are you sending? That your purpose is optional? That your time isn't worth protecting? That's not just unfair; it's ridiculous.
I know it's hard. It's easier to say "yes" to everyone else and "later" to yourself. You're wired to be the helper, the fixer, the dependable one. But what good are you to anyone if you can't keep the promises you make to yourself? If you're running on empty, if you never honor your own commitments, your purpose slips further away. Your now becomes a fog of distractions, exhaustion, and regret.
The K.I.S.S. ~ Keep your promises to yourself!So how do you break this cycle?
First, play on your own team. Your biggest ally in building the life you want is you. That means when you say you're going to do something—for your health, your growth, your sanity—you do it. No excuses, no postponed "maybes." If you promise to write for 30 minutes, block the time and protect it like it's a client call. If you commit to resting on Sunday, actually rest.
Second, get ruthless about your daily rhythm. What small, non-negotiable actions feed your purpose? Maybe it's a morning routine, a workout, journaling, or simply shutting your phone off before bed. Identify those anchors and build your day around them. When you keep those promises daily, you're creating momentum that compounds into real change.
Finally, understand this: keeping your promises to yourself isn't selfish. It's foundational. When you prioritize your own commitments, you recharge your capacity to show up fully for others. You raise your personal standard, and that changes everything in how you move through your work and life.
So stop letting yourself slip to the bottom of your to-do list. Make a pact to be the person who follows through on your own word—the person who shows up for your dreams with the same loyalty you have for everyone else's. Because if you don't, who will?
You owe it to yourself to keep your promises—and that's how you build a life and purpose that won't just survive, but thrive.
"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
