It's rare to find a person that's true to their word. With the rise of the internet and a serious lack of leadership at home, more and more people are treating their word as "whatever".
While it is important to observe other people, it is more important to observe yourself too.
This right here is why a lot of people don't seem to realize they're being a bunch of knuckleheads.
I really agree that words have become "whatever" these days and yeah the lack of introspection really drives me mad.
I won't beat around the bush, I was the type of person that never kept his word. When my dad told me what his dad said about a man not keeping their word, it stuck to me.
I do everything in my power to keep my word these days. I might be late but I am true to my word.
