Some of you may be wondering why I post my Things To Do List on this blog each night and then update it each day as I complete the work.

Wonder no more because I am about to tell you why.

It is all part of my philosophy of: plan, do and review.

I plan what I am going to accomplish tomorrow, do what I set out to and then review to make sure that what I intended to do happened and make adjustments to what I will do in the future based on a written plan.

So, in case you were wondering, that’s why.

Stephen Covey, in one of his books, made a statement that has been echoing in my head since I read it. Here is a quote summing it up from the description of the book “Principle Centered Leadership”:

You will develop your abilities faster by learning to make and keep promises or commitments. Start by making a small promise to yourself; continue fulfilling that promise until you have a sense that you have a little more control over yourself. Now take the next level of challenge. Make yourself a promise and keep it until you have established control at that level. Now move to the next level; make the promise, keep it. As you do this, your sense of personal worth will increase; your sense of self-mastery will grow, as will your confidence that you can master the next level.

I often find myself thinking about that: keeping promises to myself and it has helped me immensely.

Until my next post,

James
