Keeping Promises to Yourself
Keeping promises to yourself is one of the best ways to build self-confidence.
For so long, I thought that in order to be confident, I had to change what I looked like on the outside. And while feeling good about your appearance can absolutely contribute to confidence, I eventually realized that real confidence comes from within.
When you show up for yourself and keep the promises you make to yourself, you prove that you can follow through.
If you tell yourself you’re going to work out, eat healthier, or get up early—and then you wake up late and think, “I’ll just try again tomorrow,” it might seem harmless. But when you constantly negotiate with yourself and make excuses, you’re not building trust with yourself. You’re teaching yourself that the things you say you’ll do are optional.
I learned this firsthand.
Even when I worked out consistently and changed my body, I still struggled with confidence. I would restrict my food throughout the week, completely binge on the weekends, and then tell myself, “I’ll start over Monday.”
Every week, it was the same cycle.
My body was changing, but my relationship with myself wasn’t.
I eventually realized that confidence wasn’t going to come from finally reaching a certain weight, looking a certain way, or having the “perfect” body. It came from becoming someone I could trust.
Someone who did what she said she was going to do.
That doesn’t mean you’ll never miss a workout, eat something you didn’t plan on eating, or have an off day. It means you stop using one imperfect day as an excuse to start over.
You keep going because every promise you keep to yourself is a vote for the woman you’re becoming.
That is what Becoming HER is really about.
It’s not about becoming a completely different woman or waiting until you look a certain way to finally feel confident. It’s about becoming the woman who follows through, builds habits that support the life she wants, and learns to trust herself along the way.
You don’t have to start over every Monday.
You can start becoming her today.
