Actions speak…I plan to start this blog post by asking you: Who do you think has more credibility?
- A person who speaks with conviction and is passionate about their beliefs,
- Or someone whose words don’t mean anything?
Okay…I’ll tell you what I think.
It’s a simple fact: actions speak louder than words.
In my experience, if someone is confident enough in what they believe in taking action, the words they speak are less relevant.
This is because their efforts have proven that they sincerely believe in what they say.
In this blog post, I’d like to explore the idea of actions speaking louder than words and how we can use them to influence people’s perceptions of us.
For instance, if you are thinking about what to say or do next in your relationship, it may be time to stop and think about the actions you are taking before speaking.
Actions…Why?
How often have you spoken out of term and regretted the words that escaped through your lips? Actions speak louder than words because they show us who we are at our core.
When people communicate through their actions instead of words, they learn more about themselves and each other.
Because they don’t get caught up in any misunderstandings or miscommunications when talking things out.
Moreover, it means if you want to connect with a loved one on a deeper level, start by noticing what is positive and right in your relationship.
This way, you won’t focus on all the negatives.
It’s no secret that nonverbal communication is a powerful part of human interaction.
In fact, there is no substitute for the ability of a smile, a nod, or even silence to convey emotion and meaning. There is an old saying that “actions speak louder than words,” but what does it actually mean?
Actions…Essentially,
We communicate with others all the time without saying a word.
The most straightforward actions, such as touching one’s phone, convey the message we communicate.
Meanwhile, we simply express our thoughts and feelings to others and ourselves, such as touching ourselves while we speak on the phone.
It is a sign that someone is paying attention when they lean back when they hear someone speak.
Crossing arms when asking for help is another indication.
Most importantly…it takes courage to put your all into loving someone else, but what better reward is there?
You can tell how much people value others by the lengths they go through to make sure those around them feel loved and cared for.
This applies both ways:
If we want our loved ones to be happy and content, we should do everything we can to do it.
There’s no better way to say “I love you” than by being there for someone in their time of need or celebrating as hard as they want on their big day.
Conclusion
In fact, we communicate in various ways, and some people might think the words they speak are louder than their actions, but to ignore the impact of body language would be foolish.
I’ve learned that when you want someone’s attention, you can’t rely on what they hear from your mouth but rather the way you act.
