"One's philosophy is not best expressed in words; it is expressed in the choices one makes. In the long run, we shape our lives and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we die. And the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility." Eleanor Roosevelt, first lady
If I asked you for your outlook on life, I am sure like most people you would have many reasons why there is so much suffering, opinions on politics and probably millions of complaints about the state of the world today regarding violence, terror, disruptive youth, child prostitution, the list goes on....
It seems that we are all experts on life when it comes to talking about it but then, what are we actually DOING about following up on those words?
Are you talking about health yet continuing to smoke, overeat and doing little to take care of your own?
Are you talking about poverty and pointing a finger at 'big businesses' for their apparent un involvement to charities yet continuing to walk straight past the homeless man you pass everyday on the street?
Are you talking but doing little more than moving your lips?
Today I want to challenge is to carry out an assessment on yourself.
Take note of how many times today you talk about doing something versus actually taking action and doing it.
I think you will be surprised at the outcome!
Do not beat yourself up over the answer, just know that one of the keys to success is matching your words with your deeds.
