About this episode

Imagine this.
You make a date to meet a friend for lunch.
At the time you need to leave your house, you don’t feel like meeting this friend.

But nothing is really wrong.
She’s already on the way there, so it’s too late to cancel.
And she is counting on you being there.

Do you just not show up?
Do you just blow off the date because you don’t feel like going?

My guess is that you keep your promise to your friend and show up for your date.
You care about what she will think.
You care about how she views you.
You care about being the kind of person who does what she says she will do.

So how do we translate this skill, that you already have, to you?
And train yourself to do what you say you will do?

That is what we will cover in your coaching session today.
We will talk about all the different kinds of promises you might make.
And all the excitement you have when you first make them.

I know you think that excitement will help you follow through. And it does, to some extent. But you also need to take action. And practice taking action over and over again.

We will talk about why it’s easier to make and keep promises in the morning and how to create momentum that will help you stay true to your word even as the day goes on.

You’ll learn why planning on a deep level really helps make keeping those promises easier, and how to plan and break down that promise into small doable steps.

Imagine now how amazing it would feel to do exactly what you said you would do, just like honoring that promise to a friend who is sitting waiting for you at lunch.

You can do this, and I will help you.
