The reputation you have with yourself is the most important. If you keep breaking promises to yourself, you become someone who doesn't trust themselves.

Rightly so! I keep quoting Thoreau today: "Public opinion is a weak tyrant compared with our own private opinion. What a man thinks of himself, that it is which determines, or rather indicates, his fate."
