Not Splitting Hairs

It’s not splitting hairs to say that actions speak louder than words.

Or that talk is cheap,

Or even free.

The only currency that you can really bank on

Is action.

  1. Talk is cheap . . . until you hire an attorney. 😉

    I put far more weight into people’s actions than into their words. Show me . . . don’t tell me.

  2. Yep, I am more of a visual person–just show me. Too much talk wastes time that can be used to do something.

    But then I do like to talk…

  3. Yes, talk IS good and important IF it is followed up promptly by matching actions. Talk leaves us sitting in place, action moves us forward.
