Gandhi once wrote on a scrap of paper: my life is my message.
This is it.
I think I, and a lot of other people, try to tell people what to do.
What our values should be.
Whatβs important in life.
But Gandhi is known for nonviolence because he simply never engaged in it.Β
In fact, he's known for doing protests and marches peacefully.
And it really just shows this:
Thereβs a difference between a preacher and a practitioner.
"Practice what you preach," right?
But thatβs hard β because the right thing is often the hard thing.
Side note:Β
I once heard that if you have two choices, you should usually do the hardest one.
Because if the easy one were the right one, you would have already done it.
But I just wanted you to think about this this week:
Your life is your message.
No need to preach.
No need to say too much.
Feel free to write books like I do, if you want to
But the most important thing is living that change.
Hopefully, people will be inspired and follow along.

Powerful message. Reminds me of the WWJD trend. We look to people who have characteristics worth emulating; we should all seek to be worth emulating. Show, don't tell.
