HOUR 206: The Charged Life with Brendon Burchard, episode date 21/3/17: Stick To Your Word:
If you’re someone who constantly lets people down, here are four tips to help you stick to your word.
#1: Stop committing to things that you have no passion for. Learn to say no now and you won’t have to say sorry later.
#2: Respect other peoples time. You cancelling is disrespectful. The other person has a ‘to do list’ for the day and priorities as well. They would probably prefer to spend more time with their family and kids, but instead they’ve committed to you. Be respectful.
#3: Know your payoff. Why did you commit in the first place? What were you going to ‘get’ or ‘give’? So if you’re about to flake out, remember why you said yes.
#4: You break it you buy it. You must repair the damage for breaking your word. You could send them a very kind email or audio message apologising. A small gift to say sorry, or give them more than they were expecting on your nest meeting. If you were initially going to give them 30 minutes of your time, instead give them 60 minutes. You must be more generous if you truly want to repair the relationship.
