Do you make plans with others that sound fun at the time, but when the day comes and your mood is different, you cancel? If so, you may be unaware of the message you’re sending. Since others have cleared their schedules to make time for you, canceling communicates that you don’t value their time or your own word. Even if others ‘understand’ your need to back out, frequent plan changing conveys a lack of respect for yourself and them. To avoid eroding your friendship and your self-esteem, keep your word! That in itself makes commitments…
Worth keeping.
