Actions Speak, Words Whisper
Have you ever heard the saying that actions speak louder than words?
I think that is so true. But, I’ll put it another way,
“Actions speak, words whisper”
I believe that communication is super super important. I also believe that the “language barrier” is no more than a minor obstacle. Studies have shown that facial expressions are recognizable and consistent across a variety of cultures and languages.
So are words really that important?
“A picture is worth a thousand words”
So if a thousand words are worth one picture, shouldn’t an action then, be worth much more than a word or two?
That’s cool. Like it’s cool to say, that an action is more important than words by a lot. But, why does that matter? Why is that so?
I would say, that it’s because actions speak, words whisper.
Think about a whisper for a second, does that take a lot of effort or energy? Typically no.
What about speaking? Does that take a lot of energy? Maybe not, but much more than a whisper.
