Become reliable in situations too ordinary to earn praise.

Reliability in dramatic moments gets noticed and rewarded. Reliability in ordinary ones, the returned message, the deadline nobody was watching, the small thing done properly, earns nothing visible and builds nearly all of your actual reputation. People form their view of you from the unremarkable cases.

Pick the ordinary commitment you are most casual about and treat it as though it mattered for a month. No one will comment. You will notice the difference in how people rely on you.
