Actions Speak Louder Than Words
What you do has a stronger impact on people than what you say. Oftentimes, people will say one thing and do another; the phrase actions speak louder than words means that people are more likely to believe what you do rather than what you say, there is a difference between the two.
Basically, it's better to actually do something than to just say you'll do it.
Always be mindful –does your actions match your words?
It doesn’t matter what type of relationship you want to talk about, trust is important to maintain it. Without trust, the relationship crumbles, suspicion and hurt feelings come in, and eventually the relationship falls apart completely. It’s easy to say something to try to build trust but People earn trust through actions.?
Each time you say you are going to do something, but don’t, your actions speak louder than words. You are telling the other person that you don’t have the desire/interest, or willingness to stick to your promises or words. Soon, you can say anything you want to someone and they will literally only believe it when they see it. Hence the statement, “I will believe it, when I see it”?
Think of it this way, when someone apologizes to you that is a great start but if the actions don't match, the apology doesn't mean anything.?
If you want relationships to last, then your actions need to match what you say. Don’t make false promises with your words and not live up to them!?
