Talk Is Cheap

People are strange don’t you think? 

Some yearn so much, yet do so little,
Some know too little, yet judge so swiftly,
Some desire so greatly, yet give up so quickly,
Some believe so intensely, yet falter so easily,
Some criticise so readily, yet help so reluctantly,
Some take so greedily, yet give so unwillingly


A lot of us are very good at saying all the right things.
A lot of us are very good at pointing out others faults.
A lot of us are very good at teaching others a thing or two about life.

Yet when it really comes down to it, many don’t live up to their own words.
Many don’t walk their talk. In fact, many do just the opposite of what they preached.

Why?

Because their hearts and minds don’t match.
Because the good things they preached were preached with very little emotional conviction.
They know with their head, but fail to embrace with their heart.

Your actions are guided by your heart more than it is by your mind.
What you do reveals more about your heart than what you say.
If you want to know what’s in a persons heart, look at what they do.

A person who loves you does it in action.
A person who wants to help you does it in action.
A person who wants to succeed does it in action.

Talk is cheap.

If you feel something in your heart and want it to manifest in your life...

DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
