Do What You Have Said

Most of us have such a habit that we cannot do what we have said. It is because to say is very easy, but to do is a different thing. We admit that even a saint will feel difficult to do things what he has said.
For example, if we say to ourselves that we shall get up every morning to do exercise, but we may not do it by the reason of insufficient sleep or late sleep to bed. We cannot keep persistence.
It is all right that we only break our words to ourselves, but it is not good if we break our words to others once we have promised to them.
In this world, there are three kinds of people. One kind is to say first and do afterwards. Another kind is to do first and say later. Last kind is to say first, but never do on what he has said. There are the three kinds which form the society.
We understand that the first kind of people are the best because that he can do what he has said. He will be trusted by other people and at the same time he can deserve respect from other people too. The second is all right in principle because he only perform what he has done. The last kind is the worst. He is useless to the society because he only boasts what he wants to do, he never does anything. He is a worthless person in the society.
