WORDS IN ACTION
Talk is cheap, thoughts are free, ideas are unlimited but relative actions are usually too expensive and scarce to find.

Everyone today seeks to be heard; from politicians canvassing for votes, salesmen scouting for sale, pastors hunting for souls, motivational speakers stressing their points, lawyers fighting for defence, police officers shouting at crime, parents demanding compliance, teachers impacting knowledge, doctors diagnosing ailments, writers raising their opinions etc. Everyone is trying to either make a point or prove their points; show superiority or advertise folly.

Everyone is a master at expressing their thoughts but only a few express their thoughts through their actions. Thus, making the world seemingly noisy.

It is easy to teach things we find difficult to practice. It is comfortable to give guidance on a path we cannot tread. It is interesting to make promises we cannot keep. It is safe to paint in words what in reality we are not close to attaining. We can call it whatever name we like; packaging, patronage, scope, etc. But our actions always speak louder than our voices.

The truth is, when your words do not match up with your actions, you lack Integrity.

Our words may be our strongest advertisement, our actions are our realities. Our truth is engrafted in the things we do and how we do them. Our efforts can take us higher, our connecions can bring us opportunities, luck and chance can get us to the top, it is our integrity that keep us there.

We must be intentional about the way we live. We must be cautious about the things we say and our speech must match up with our realities. Be a person of truth, be a person of influence. Let your thoughts and your words be a true reflection of your actions.
What you say about yourself is not as strong as what others say about you.
Be different, be truthful and be a person of Integrity. Don't just talk; act.
