Publisher Description: A single promise can change a life forever. 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 10.3 million Promise Cards distributed, this cause has played a unique role in changing lives around the world. Heartwarming, 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 One hundred percent of the author's proceeds go to because I said I would, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that is bettering humanity through chapters of volunteers, character education in schools, accountability programs, and awareness campaigns with global reach. |
