I have always been big on words. Besides the fact that words have power, they also require action. To me, people can say a lot of things but their actions are where the wheel hits the road. I remember in my early twenties, I relied on the words of others. If you said you would be there, I believed it and if you don’t show up I was devastated. I thought that everyone live by their words. As I got older it was even more important for me to be impeccable with my words because I realized how devastating it can be when someone is depending on me to come through or be there because I told them I would. It also meant I had to be more careful of the commitments I make. I can’t be everything to everyone but when I committed I would move oceans to be there. Because my word means something. 

Lesson 12: Be Impeccable with your word.
