Have some integrity.  Build your character. 

Lying to ourselves is one of the worst offenses.  If we cannot believe ourselves who can we believe.  We must work to learn how to keep our word to ourselves so that we strive to do what we say we will do.  This is a skill that must be practiced and strengthened.  Some are better than others.  Seeking to honor our words helps us to grow in setting realistic goals in  hopes to keep those goals and move forward victoriously in our careers, families, faith, and friendships amongst other things.  Even if we fail, we gain experience for the next attempt.  Reference Episode one with Frederick Douglass running from slavery, failing but trying again.  Also, honoring your word to your manager, other employees, customers, builds a reputation that could lead to new opportunities.
