ACTION SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS

 It is fact that words without actions hang heavy in the air. Indeed, all successful people have one thing in common: 

They are men of action. The honor and accolade are only for those who believe in concrete implementation of their plans. Usually, those who paint themselves gloriously are empty of wisdom, knowledge and realistic approach. They are victim of precarious narcissism. However, man of actions knows that his virtue is hard work. He does not believe in empty and baseless boasting. He works hard, and gets unprecedented results. In this way, he proves that actions speak louder than words.

Moreover, history is replete with evidences that actions have always produced encouraging results. One, who burns midnight oil constantly, reaches at pinnacle of glory. Contrarily, lethargic people always face failures and desperations. All writers, scientists, politicians, etc believe that a recipe of success is only action. Biographies of leaders like, Nelson Mandela, Mahathir, Quaid-e-Azam, Woodrow Wilson, Churchill, etc give glimpses into the world of action. They never lived in fantasy of sheer words.

Furthermore, all scientific discoveries and inventions are result of robust actions. Today, man enjoys luxurious life just because of painstaking of forefathers. Thomas Alva Edison worked hard and pulled world out of darkness. 

Similarly, all scientists and explorers were men of action. For example, Christopher Columbus, Vasco de Gama, Tasman, John Cabot braved dangerous seas and discovered new lands. They did not believe in lip service and adhoc, peace-meal approaches. Thanks to their actions which made world a comfortable place.

Similarly, one can analyze the progress of western world. There is not an iota of doubt that it is in dominating position today only because of actions. The French Revolution, American Revolution and industrial revolution are jewels of their action. They never preferred inaction to actin like eastern part of globe. Arguably, many countries like Japan, South Korea, and China have got clinical success in eastern portion of world because of actions. The third world countries’ plight is grimmer because of inertia and lassitude. People do not work diligently and depend on divine help only. The religiosity is deeply ingrained in their life. 

Resultantly, they have little believe in rationality and labor, despite fact that Islam urges to work hard. Thus, western world has trumped the global south due to their concrete actions. Doubtlessly, shallow rhetoric and hollow boasting are futile. They do not bear desirable fruits. It is rightly said that empty bags are unable to stand firmly. Unfortunately, this trend has gained significant ground in Pakistan. Politicians have adopted this policy unanimously to hoodwink public. They always resort to fancy vows and cosmetic measures. 

However, the real progress of country lies in sincere actions. Sadly, politicians are self-servers; only beat drums of their own praises. True, majority follows same policy but politicians are at the topmost slot. The whole discussion correspondents to the conclusion that smoke screen promises and blowing own trumpets are useless. The only thing that helps climb the ladder of success is action. The world without action is a world without existence. God forbidden, if men of action stop struggle, world will cease to exist forever. The nature also gives lesson of constant action. If sun remains in slumber, the deep dark night will never go away. Same thing is true for ferocious winters and charming springs. Hence, everything including all the objects of this universe gives only one 

Lesson: action speak louder than words.
