I committed to do this by this time but it's not so important. Why this fuss?
Not keeping your word indicates certain things. The first is that you cannot be relied upon to keep your word. You will break promises. The impact of this is that trust is lost.
People do not trust someone who doe snot keep his word. Who cannot be relied upon. When trust is lost, people do not fully commit to work, to the relationship. They are always wary. One cannot trust such a person because we do not know whether such a person will deliver or not. More importantly, the person to whom you have given your word feels you do not respect or care for them enough to keep your word.
Leaders who do not keep their word will have a team that will not deliver, that will not keep its word. As a leader, trust building is very important.
A person you trust is someone who will show up, who will keep his or her word. You respect such people. Start honouring every promise you make, every word you have given. It's important to people.
