The real reason you’ve lost confidence.
You don't keep promises to yourself.
Imagine you’re planning to move into another home.
You asked your friend to help.
When the day came, he didn’t show up. He didn’t even pick up the phone.
You ended up doing everything alone.
It turned out he was busy going out. Would you trust that friend again?
Probably not.
You do the same thing to yourself every single day.
You set goals like:
“I’ll refactor that code later.”
“I'll learn that new framework next week.”
But you never get to it. You break promises to yourself.
Promises no one else sees, but your mind remembers.
How do you expect to achieve great things if you can’t trust yourself?
Trust starts within. The small commitments you keep, even when no one’s watching.
But life happens. Things get in the way.
What then?
Instead of making excuses, own your decisions.
“I can’t do it because…”“I choose to rest today because I value balance.”
The most important promise you’ll ever make is to yourself.
Keep it, and nothing is out of reach.
