Quote of the Day #106: Actions Always Prove Why Words Mean Nothing!

in #quoteoftheday8 years ago

Put up or shut up!

We have all heard that expression countless times: ”actions speak louder than words”, and it is not only true but it is one of the universal laws. The more someone talks about how they are going to do something, create something, finish something, start something, it’s pretty much hot air getting blown around and literally means nothing.

The moment these folks put a little momentum behind their big words and actually accomplish a task or complete a project, than their hyped up rhetoric can be justified, but not until some real world proof occurs.

The sad thing that happens these days is that everybody and their brother touts a big game, but nobody ever delivers. It reminds me of the Pareto principle in more ways than one, you know, the 80/20 rule. It generally goes like this, 80% of the talkers are flat out just flapping their gums, and 20% of the talkers turn into movers & shakers and get IT done.

Today’s quote is all about action and getting things done, be that guy, the guy that is always crushing quotas and delivering the goods even on rainy days. That guy is a BOSS, and that guy knows the score. BE THAT GUY!

As usual again your quote of the day is challenging. I am in 20%.

Always rise up to the challenge @shrivastava.sud :)

”actions speak louder than words”. I am totally agree with this.
I always followed this but you have to count people who are successful with only words. Steemit is only made my speak louder through blockchain when I failed on other social media.

And I am so happy to say I already did something instead going to do something :D

Getting things done even if small, is the result of action. Words can only take us so far, and then action is required!
Thanks for that @azizbd :)

Thanks @bimi, good to see others in agreement with this.

Cheers @nikolina! Good to see you around, hope you're doing well :)
Thanks for stopping by!

Actions don't lie. Words often do.

Ain't that the truth!!
