Keep your expectations of others low. Do what you say you're gonna do. Face your fears and challenges with courage. Recognize the things you can control and let go of the things you cannot. Be kind open and honest. Choose to see genuine value in others.

Show gratitude and earn the respect of others. Explore alternatives before making choices. Be receptive to positive change
and evaluate your own behavior honestly and critically.

There would certainly be a lot less disappointment in my life if everyone "under promised and over delivered".. But unfortunately, that's seldom the case, I guess its not in peoples nature to under-estimate themselves.

lots of people have the people pleasing sickness. The motivation behind it is good even though it is unhealthy.

Interesting thread

I don't make promises and I don't want people making promises to me

I had a lot of promises broken to me when I was growing up and just don't like doing it myself

Just do what you say you will...no fuss no muss :)

and sometimes you just have to say no
