What is a promise you’ve made to yourself?

[ThisFairScroller]

We all make little (or big) promises to ourselves, whether it’s about how we want to live, things we’ll never tolerate again or goals we’re determined to reach.

What’s a promise you’ve made to yourself? And have you kept it?

That I will never put the 4 & half stone back on that I’ve lost over the last 8/9 months.

To go on a diet

The Twirl in my hand shows that I did not 😪

In 2000 my new years resolution was not to ever wear chipped nail varnish on my hands at work.

I've largely managed it.

Don't go back to the drink or drugs. Nearly 10 years sober.

For my fortieth birthday I promised myself I would be divorced long before my 50th.

I did not keep it.

But I got divorced at 51.

To get ‘me’ back.

Not even close yet but facing the right way

That I won’t take cocaine again - So far so good.

To never help another suicidal person accept calling 999.
