I commend you on your effort! @Duane - You are right. Being deceitful takes a lot of energy and causes plenty of stress. It works against us in every area of life. It is always better to be honest and forthright. @Kenneth - I'm a big fan of personal accountability. I hope others use this as you suggest. @B Smith - Great example! I'm one of those people in business that feels just like the person that didn't get the quote on time. I've told vendors that I have to be able to trust you with the little things if I'm going to give you my business. Thanks for all your comments!

It kills your credibility when you don't deliver on your promise. This is true in your personal and business lives. I recently lost a project because we didn't deliver our quotation as promised. I was told "if you can't get me the quote on time, how will you execute the project on schedule?" Even though it was a coworker who was late with the quote, it was my order and it cost me a lot (I'm a salesman). On the flip side, I get a lot of business because my customers know I will do everything in my power to meet my commitments. Jeff-I can’t agree more.

This is essential for all achievement. If you don't inwardly, consider yourself as worthy your subconscious will block your goals. If it (your subconscious) sees whatever you are trying to achieve as something you don't deserve, you won't be able to get it.

I think this is the best investment I have ever done on myself,i.e. being a trusted person. It was not knowingly, of course. Somehow my parents upbringing of me left this in all the children. It has reaped me lots and lots of dividends. Being dependable and responsible is the branding I have asked my children to get for themselves once they start working. But I think your post says it better. Cornerstone it should be!.

Consistently doing the right thing over time will help us to open many doors that otherwise would not be accessible.

Everything counts, in building that level of trust: punctuality, being faithful to partner, being a man (or woman) of your word, etc. Falling short in one aspect consistently can plant a seed of doubt.
