I’m typing this article to you at 8:00pm in the evening with a runny nose and annoying cough.
I could be watching reruns of American Pickers on The History Channel. That’s my normal “go to” couch potato TV indulgence when I’m sick.
So why am I here sending this to you? Because I TOLD somebody I would!

And the best way to make sure you make a better choice is to make a commitment to someone you respect. Pick someone you know is pulling for you.
Make a new rule for yourself that if you tell someone you’re going to do something, then you will do it. No exceptions.
And while you’re at it, adopt another new rule for yourself that says, “If I really don’t want to do something, then I won’t say I’m going to do it!”

That’s what this is really all about.
Confidence is basically having faith in yourself. And when you make a commitment to keeping your word – and being CONSISTENT – you feel more confident.
Men want to feel more confident in their ability to follow through, to be productive, to be a provider and to make an impact.
Nothing will help that more than being a man with a plan and a man who does what he says.
