ACTION
Fate knows where you are going, but it is up to you to drive there.
Nothing happens until I make it happen.
You can’t build a reputation on what you’re going to do.
I think one’s feelings waste themselves in words; they ought all to be distilled into actions which bring results.
Ideas without action are worthless.
I think there is something, more important than believing: Action! The world is full of dreamers, there aren’t enough who will move ahead and begin to take concrete steps to actualize their vision.
Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire and begin at once, whether you are ready or not, to put this plan into action.
There are costs and risks to a program of action, but they are far less than the long-range risks and costs of comfortable inaction.
What you do speaks so loud that I cannot hear what you say.
Leadership is practiced not so much in words as in attitude and in actions.
Never confuse motion with action.
Just Do It!
A man is the sum of his actions, of what he has done, of what he can do, Nothing else.
Drive thy business, or it will drive thee.
Do or do not. There is no try.
As I grow older, I pay less attention to what men say. I just watch what they do.
Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
You will never plough a field if you only turn it over in your mind.
The great end of life is not knowledge but action.
Action may not always bring happiness; but there is no happiness without action.
Commitment leads to action. Action brings your dream closer.
Character isn’t inherited. One builds it daily by the way one thinks and acts, thought by thought, action by action.
I have long since come to believe that people never mean half of what they say, and that it is best to disregard their talk and judge only their actions.
Think like a man of action, act like a man of thought.
The true gentleman does not preach his beliefs until he does so by his actions.
Good intentions are not good enough… ultimately we are measured by our actions.
Conditions are never just right. People who delay action until all factors are favourable do nothing.
The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.
Success seems to be connected to action. Successful people keep moving. They make mistakes, bu they don’t quit.
To do nothing is in every man’s power.
Your life will be no better than the plans you make and the action you take. You are the architect and builder of your own life, fortune, destiny.
Take action my friends,
Your Pal,
TAB

Tab--Calls to action
are not always responded to by those who most need to hear the call. At least, that is one “take away” from my near lifetime of military service and “service” as a military brat.
The military has learned that as you say, “Leadership is practiced not so much in words as in attitude and in actions.”
Also, in our relationships with others, it is good to keep the thought out front that, as you say, “What you do speaks so loud that I cannot hear what you say.”
Keep these thoughts for the day coming, my friend. Have a great Christmas!

ACTION RESULTS REACTION!
Hmmmmm, sometimes, (more than not) one does not like the reaction that is given to them when they do the action first.
isnt it!
In other words, they want to do ALL the action BUT will not accept the proper reaction to their actions.
