Dear reader, a promise you keep by lunch teaches you something a big promise never will: that you are someone who keeps them.

I ask clients to make one promise a day that is almost too small to count. Drink a glass of water before coffee. Write one line in the notebook. Walk to the corner and back.

By Friday they have five kept promises. That’s worth more than one heroic Monday and four quiet days of shame.
