walk the talk

If you are a motivational speaker , hear me out loud, please
If you are a trainer in training to become another movitational
speaker, heat me out loud, too, please.
If you ever ever think of being a motivational speaker, then think, think, think!

You see, many people are born with the gifts of the gab. Cakap banyak,organized, funny, can convince people to do stuffs, and they decided, hey.. why don't I be someone who can can motivate people. Fair enough, you may change the world with your gift. You conducts several sessions, and people always walk out from the seminar room of yours feeling like at the top of the world. You, too, feeling high, talk loftily on how many lives have you touched, have you changed. You then come back and
touch the others' lives too.

But make sure you talk and then you walk your talk.This is not one job where you can leave the uniform when you have reached home.

Don't get me wrong, I am so into these sort of CHANGES. Gung-Ho is my favorite (or shall I say, 'was'). Am trying each nights on how to intelligently use 'Whale-Done' on my 1 year old. 'SOURCING POSITIVE ENERGIES' are my main key search at Mr Google. R Covey's are my favorite books, so does 'HOW TO WIN FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE'.

There are teachers in this new era of teaching/belief/management skills/ whatever you wanna call them. True enough, when I remember the teaching, the faces of the teachers come across much often. And these faces, by God, these faces better not fail me.

One has. She does exactly 180 degrees from the teaching. I just couldn't find words to describe how it breaks my heart, the person who influence the top management on the teaching of XXX is the one who does exactly the opposite. You see, how positive she was has made her being promoted and she leads now an unit full of passionate and talented people. They are smart, they are committed to the work, and they LOVE what they do.

These are the people that she fails to lead to a greater height.

People are now being suspicious to each other. They don't work as a team any more. No sense of belonging, no pride in working. Like one writes, it is just a plain work.

She, has successfully backfired herself.

I know that she is just a plain human. Turning evil is not her fault, she may said. But responsibility shall remain. You must talk responsibly or choose not to talk at all. For it is one uniform you can't take off.
