Do you keep your commitments or (such as call when you say you will call someone?

Question

IT seems people don't take their words very seriously these days. They continually make excuses for why they didn't call or show up or write or whatever. We have every means of communication now, yet people seem to have more difficulty communicating. Why?

The thing is RandyW, is they think they are being productive working all the time running here and there, but neglecting real realationships and responsibilities of those relationsips.

Iydyana dear I use to think that way when I was attracting all kinds of codependant people and thinking it is ok that they do what ever they please at the expense of others. I like the weed out idea much better. It keeps life simple. It is not about judgement it is about practicality. I find that people who say don't jude have no discrimination about anthing. la la la dyda. All the holyer than thoug codependants will probably accept your answer and the people who are irresponsible with others will also love your anser.

Answer 1

I do keep my commitments because ir is a resposiblity you have committed to a person. Thae fact i have committed, i must see to it that i must be there for it is a valued time you borrowed from a person and vice-versa. There is what you call a consensual agreement on both parties.

If people seemed to be careless then they have no business at all to be committed to other person or enter into such a commitment. Commitment is a commitment, it is entrusting of oneself to another person to do such an act based on its agreement. I believe some are really irresponsible and immature and don't value other's precious time.

Thanks for asking. Have a great day!

Answer 2

People tend to say they have busy schedule's and often forget, although I think it's more like they don't do things because it either doesn't benefit them or they aren't interested.
I personally will go out of my way to make sure that I have return a call or made an appointment.
If everyone was so lazy about appointments and phone calls thing in this world wouldn't get done.
Therefore I feel that it's just a hand full of people that choose to do this because it's not in their best interest, or perhaps they are not educated well enough to deal with it.
So the solution to this is weed them out, just like a garden you must weed out the plants that don't yield any production so is true in life.
By eliminating these people from the picture they either start to become more aware of their faults or continue on to lead less productive lives.

Answer 3

I try my very best and that alone is not always good enough. I do understand that the other person is waiting for you so it is rude and selfish not to do what you say you are going to do.
I become annoyed with people that ask you do call them and their phone mail box is full. Are they so lazy that perhaps they don't throw their garbage out on time or forget to take a bath.
It is values and how you were nurtured by your parents especially your mother.

Answer 4

I can’t agree with Randy! How about ‘Don’t judge’?

You are feeling hurt? So do I, sometimes… when get no response… but the world around is what it is, not what you desire it to be. I’m trying to be tolerant and see what’ll happen next, i.e. give more freedom to those who are a part of my life. Giving freedom to the others means feeling free from judgment, from grudge, and it’s your own Freedom! Enjoy it and keep being loving.
Learn to forgive! Be responsible only for yourself and it’s a blessing that you needn’t be ashamed for doing wrong. Just remember – not everyone can be as perfect as you are!

Answer 5

I try to but unfortunately sometimes over-commit myself.
People often do this as an excuse because they don't want to call someone, because they have too much going on, because they can't say no, etc.
It's best to say nothing than to tell someone you will do something you have no intention of doing.

Answer 6

Yes. I do.
You have to be responsible and honor other people with your effort to appreciate having them in your life.
This is the opposite of selfishness.
