"Action or Intention?"

--by Marsha D. Egan, CPCU, PCC

Leaders judge themselves by their actions
They are honest with themselves
They act in harmony with their values

"Actions speak louder than words" -Anon

10 SECOND REALITY CHECK

Do you think of yourself one way, then act another?
Do your words match your actions?
Do your actions match your intentions?

"Remember, people will judge you by your actions, not your intentions.
You may have a heart of gold -- but so does a hard-boiled egg." -Anon.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Your actions speak for you
Most people judge themselves by what they intend to do,
Rather than what they actually do.
How about you???


"It is not fair to ask of others what you are not willing to do yourself."
-Eleanor Roosevelt

SO, WHAT WILL YOU DO DIFFERENTLY?
Be brutally honest with yourself about your intentions.
Make sure your actions match those intentions.
If you say you're not a gossip, don't gossip.
If you think you're loyal, be loyal.
If you believe you are trustworthy, be trustworthy.


"What you do speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say."

-Ralph Waldo Emerson
