As humans we naturally judge people. But to fully judge someone, we look at his or her actions.
People base their perceptions of someone by looking at what they do. Actions can tell a lot about a person.If one is angry, their actions show how they are feeling. For someone who is a stranger to the angry person, they would base their perception, of that person, on those actions performed in that very moment and assume that person is a very grumpy, high-stung person.
A lot of people can talk-the-talk but cannot put what they say into action. The phrases "Empty vessels make the loudest noise" and "Actions speak louder than words" rings true to this case. If someone is known to be an "all talk no action" type of person, people will not take what this person says seriously.
A good example would be these political parties we vote for every election. They promise us the world is we vote for them, but they never follow through on their promises. With the next election around the corner, the general public will take that phrase "Actions speak louder than words" to heart and base their votes on the issues the various parties wish to address and whether they can actually deliver on these.Politicians tend to be the biggest smoothest talkers of us all.To be whole in this life, one needs to use their actions for good.
People recognise actions more than words. There is no point only looking good on paper. You need to perform to really prove yourself in this world.

In the context of the working world, an interesting thought that crossed my mind when reading this blog post is what really sets us apart from other people applying for the same job as us. Its what we do, the extra expertise that we have, thats what makes us not just the qualification that we have.Indeed people recognise actions more than words.
ReplyDeleteThis is a good point. The political parties are always making empty promises. This happens every election. They all on an empty lading power trip.
