Summary:
We all make promises constantly. "Yes, I'll be there." "Sure, no problem!" But do we really mean what we are saying? What is the impact of a broken promise? And what happens to a life when a promise is honored? "Because I said I would" is the international social movement at the forefront of shifting how the world views commitment and accountability. With over 9.81 million Promise Cards distributed, this cause has played a unique role in changing lives around the world. Heart-warming, humorous, inspirational, and tragic--these stories will challenge readers to look deep within themselves and consider the importance of the promises they make. Through a collection of inspiring short stories and concise philosophical chapters, readers will gain the following: Practical life lessons from surprisingly raw stories of everyday people with incredible determination; useful advice on how to get better at keeping promises; inspiring perspectives that can be utilized in leadership and character development initiatives.
