I grew up in a mostly unpredictable environment, so I quickly adopted reliability as my No. 1 valuable characteristic in a human. I don't care if you have three heads, walk with a limp and smell bad, as long as you can be counted on to do what you say you will do. The opposites, the unreliables, I refer to as "flakes." I have friends in both categories, and I love them equally. I just know that the "flakes" are likely to change their minds, for instance, if they get a better offer.
What about me and my personal reliability? Because I want to forever avoid the "flake" designation, I am quite cautious about what I agree to, and I have no problem with the one-word sentence, "No." A wise spiritual mentor once stated that if you are doing something you do not want to be doing, you are doing someone else's job.
I guess that's why I keep posting every day--I'm reliable!!
