Can you be counted on? Many times when discussing the first point of the Scout Law, a Scout will tell me that he is Trustworthy because he tells the truth. I ask that you consider that trustworthiness extends beyond speech and into actions. Have you ever told someone that "I'll get to it," and you did not do it? Even if it is a "I forgot," consider that telling someone that you will do something and not following through can be perceived as dishonest. Earning trust and having someone's faith that you will in deed do what you say is arguably one of the most important facets of a good reputation. Follow through with your promises. If you are truly forgetful, take notes and keep a list of your commitments so you can refer back to your 'to do' list. No one can take your reputation -- you have to give it away to lose it. Keep your commitments so you can command others' trust in you.
A Scout is Trustworthy.
