That extra effort always makes other people to trust you. Everybody loves that ‘extra’ :-P …

Jokes apart, it’s easier said than done… :-)

I think today the thought is under commit and over deliver. This is also leading to poor outcome and sometimes a person who put that little extra wins. I think one should commit to their potential and deliver and continuously bench mark and raise the bar

I totally agree with your synopsis on doing that a lil bit extra effort on fulfilling the promises we make…I think its better to avoid promising and instead do what you can do with all the commitment. This way atleast we know e aren’t failing to fulfill something we agreed upon.. :)

So, rightfully explained. That’s how it should be Vinay! We shouldn’t promise more than our abilities to avoid unwanted expectations that lead to despair. Instead, we can certainly take a lead in trying out best to deliver more than enough for those surprisingly smiling faces. :)

Now that’s something I firmly believe improves your credibility, though mostly we find it the other way round. Ít’s frustrating when people over promise and under deliver.
