“You cannot talk your way out of something you behaved yourself into.”
—Stephen Covey, self-help author

Actions speak louder than words. They are all we really have to make our dreams of a better future become our reality.
Consider a business leader who consistently touts his core values and corporate vision, yet is seen by his colleagues to act inconsistently with these beliefs. Consider the individual who is constantly discussing his interest in health and wellness, but is often seen making unhealthy eating choices and is rarely seen engaged in physical activity.
Exercise:
Where in life can you bring greater alignment between your actions and your words?
To whom–besides yourself–will you make these promises, and what added support will be required to ensure this new level of personal accountability?
