【Hello Monday】It's Not an Accident

Have you ever wondered why human beings are naturally born with two ears, two eyes, two hands, two legs, but just one mouth? Could there be a special reason, or is it just a mere coincidence? Well it could be attributed to the following reasons:

2 Ears – Listen more than you talk

In order to learn from other people, we need to learn and practice the act of listening. Richard Branson, the English Business Magnate and owner of the Virgin Atlantic Airline once said, “Listen more than you talk. Nobody learned anything by hearing themselves speak”.
In the same vein, Dalai Lama said “When you talk, you are only repeating what you know. But if you listen, you may learn something new”.

2 Eyes – Watch more than you talk

The best way to know the real nature of people is to observe their actions with your own eyes. Like Amanda Patterson rightly put it, “One of the most important things I’ve learned in life is to ignore most of what they say. I watch what they do instead”. Words may like, but actions will tell the truth.

2 Hands – Do more, talk less

It’s better to work hard in silence and let your success speak for you. Mahatma Gandhi, the civil rights activist who led the Indian Independence Movement is quoted as saying “An ounce of practice is worth more than tons of preaching”.

2 Legs – Walk the Talk

Don’t promise. Prove with your actions. It’s high time we learned to imitate the clock; it keeps moving regardless of the season. Empty talks don’t build mansions. When you talk big, you have to back it with your actions, in order for people to really believe what you say.

In summary, life is not too much about rhetoric, listen twice as much as you talk, watch twice as much as you talk, work twice as much as you talk and keep moving forward in life.
