BE HONEST

Consider this entry as part two of WALK THE TALK.

One sure fire way to Walk the Talk is to be honest. By being honest you have nothing to hide. You have only the truth (good or bad) to back you up.

As humans, we love taking the path of least resistance whenever we can. Sometimes that path leads people to lie. Lies can sometimes get people out of trouble but for the most part it is when people forget their lies that things go awry. That is because LIES can lead to confusion. Confusion leads to strained relationships. Strained relationships lead to TROUBLE.

Good or Bad, telling truth may hurt at first, but once you are telling the truth all the time your attitude will change in that you will stand for the truth because that is what you believe, all the time. You will demand others to tell you the truth because nothing else will be accepted. You’ll start to see the world a little different by living with accepting only the honest truth, no matter if it hurts or not.

Being honest, all the time, will do wonders for your reputation. Words like integrity, trustworthy, and ethical will become associated with you. Once you get that kind of association you are, most definitely, Walking the Talk!

WALK THE TALK

A lot of people “talk the talk”. A lot of people make some noises that come from the side of their neck. Yet, others manage to “walk the walk” but do so aimlessly. They meander through life with a chip on their shoulder and really truly believe that they fully understand why the chip is there or where they are going.

While there is nothing wrong with a little self-confidence when it comes to “walking the walk” but if it is all style and no substance then why bother?

If you can talk the talk and walk the walk then why can’t you Walk the Talk? It is truly unfortunately, there are so very few who actually WALK THE TALK! By this I mean that it sure is one thing to say something and do something but are you DOING what you are Saying? Are you doing as you say? In simpler terms are you leading by example? or are you nothing but filler? hot air? all fluff?

Pick one thing you TRULY believe in and stick to it. Make it your mantra. Make it the one objective in your life that all other considerations bend and weave towards. Then and ONLY then are you WALKING THE TALK.

ALWAYS GIVE THANKS

Though there is nothing like it in the world when people go out of their way to thank you. There is no greater feeling than the one we get in our gut when people recognize us for what we do for them and who does not like feeling good?

Now ask yourself when was the last time you gave someone Thanks?

• Five minutes ago
• Yesterday
• Two days ago
• Last month
• Give someone thanks? Hell no! I am the only one who deserves any thanks!

Seriously, if you answered any of the above, and I DO MEAN ANY OF THE ABOVE, other than letter A then you are WRONG and you are OVERDUE in giving someone a simple: THANK YOU!

What’s it going to cost you to take some time and recognize all the good people and all the good things in your everyday life? Remember, no action, no event, no one is too big or too small to be left unrecognized.

Set aside some time every day to either bang out a Thank You phone call or a Thank You email. Better still, do what I do at least once a week, write a Thank You note to someone who you feel has gone above and beyond for the week? Then repeat at least once a week. Before you know it you will be saying some very meaningful Thank You to those that you never even thought deserved a second glance.

Thank you,
