How do you feel when you're not able to fulfill what you've promised?

I feel bad & disappointed for myself,because I know I could have than better... But their are just things that you wanted to make a try that's why you promised to do it, and then unfortunately you failed simply because not all things in this world are in our control... All we have to do is make another try again until we succeed.Blaming one self for the failure will never help instead always stay optimistic at all ;;

Is known a phrase that says "what you proclam you will do you won't do it" why? i think it is because a lot bad vibration of people that don't want you do what you say because it means a triumph and most of the time the others don't feel good when see that the others could reach the goals that they couldn't,because of this I don't like to share a lot about plans.

Hey buddy this is a serious issue, first of all one should not get frustrated with himself for any reason as it may reduce your confidence and make u feel uncomfortable of yourself. So before making a promise think twice, and its really important to make realistic promise so that u can fulfill your promise. And u cannot transform anything overnight so everything should be changed gradually so make promises very carefully. Hope u take this seriously buddy. all the best

I don't have confidence in myself. But like you I had high expectations of others as well. I think we all change, every minute and we are growing everyday. So, I've learned that it's pretty impossible to keep promises. I still do feel disappointment in myself when I break a promise, but I'm learning to see it as a lesson to learn myself. I will try to conclude (after beating myself up) that, Ok, it was just not the time for me and I can do it again when I really want to.

I rarely make any promises that I don't intend to keep all of the time. There are just going to be a lot of times where people want my word that I'm going to do something. However, I'm not quite sure that I am going to commit. I could, but I might not really be able to assist a person, so I don't like to full commit to a promise. There was one time where I was forced to break a promise, due to a series of circumstances and even then, it was not without a fight. And I really felt back. The person forgave me, but things were a bit awkward for a little amount of time. There are just sometimes where promises are made and it is really a bad situation when we are unable to keep them. Still I try not to make any promises that I cannot keep.

I feel like a failure if it was a big promise and if it was a petty promise, I feel the same because it does not matter much to me. Typically, I don't promise much but when I do, I only intend to withstand the promise and I will not (by my own will) break that promise. If I make a petty promise then I don't intend to keep it, but these are rare and I feel sleazy if I make a promise likeso. If there's something I absolutely need to tell someone else, or it may jeopardize a friendship or trust, I must break the promise to share information with some else. That's just how it is some times.

hi, am, me i feel bad too if I didn't fulfill my promises, but as a person were not perfect to fill it but not all promises are made to be broken right. it depend upon the person. who would make that promises. am lastly we should not make a promise when we are happy nor a decision when we are angry cause this are the fence that lead not to be fulfill by the person who declared it.

For me it make you prostrated totally be good so that things would be best.

Hello snowhybiscuis, When i promise something to myself and can't fulfill it for some reason or another, i usually analyze first the reasons why before i judge myself. Sometimes, there are much more important considerations that you have to take before making true to your promises. Of course i feel bad when i can't hold true to my promise. But I don't like to be too critical of myself lest i get so disappointed that I would not be able to accomplish anything at all. Anyway, i don't usually promise anything that i cannot be sure to do so I rarely have that kind of dilemma. When something like that crops up though, there must be a very good reason for it.

I don't make promises to myself, but I do set goals. Some I achieve and some I don't. The hardest to achieve are the things I know I ought to do but don't want to do, but do want to have done. The toughest of these goals to achieve constantly nags at my consciousness, but I still can't make myself make a serious start on it because it's such an immense task.

I feel the same way with friends when they broke the promise they have made. For some time I will feel really bad but I try to forget about those things and just thinks that maybe there are a good reason as to why they did not fulfill such promise. Now about my personal promises to myself, I try really hard not to let anyone know what I want for myself although it's really hard sometimes. Because what I notice was when I tell someone it usually didn't happen. I try to give myself a chance and reason too why I have to break my promise.

Breaking promises and being unable to say NO goes together sometimes. For me it took a long time to learn to say no when I'm unsure that I can keep a promise. Even if it's not my fault if I can't keep a promise it feels terrible, so I learnt that I don't make a promise unless I'm sure that I can keep it.

I am proud to say that I have a palabra de honor. I am a lady of my word and as much as possible, I keep my promises. In the first place, when I am not sure if I could fulfill that promise, I would play it safe and tell them that I would TRY but I can't promise. But if there are scenarios that I can't fulfill them, then I would feel bad and it would be against my ego since I've always thought of myself as someone who values honor. ^_^

I try my best not to accept a promise if I'm not sure I'll keep it. As for commitment with my inner self, I do fail miserably many times, but I try to continue no matter what. Of course I accomplish things every now and then, but I feel like failure dominates my personality.
