“I suggest that you practice practicing what you preach, prior to preaching it to others.” - Johnnie Williams III
Maybe you thought I meant to say practice makes perfect, but that’d be an incorrect answer. For instance, would you say that you are perfect? What about your parents or maybe your kids? And, while we’re at it let’s consider the friends that we’ve chosen, are they perfect?

This episode's podcast deals with the common philosophy on perfection that needs to be edited to focus more on improvement which we all can accomplish. I believe we live in a follow me society the exists off of whims and shallow ideas and ideologies that haven’t been perfected, challenged no well thought through. There are too many gurus in today’s saturated marketplace selling fool‘s Gold for fiat currency - that’s no longer backed by the gold standard.

Be sure to practice improving upon yourself (first) and practice what you preach to others (second) before you begin preaching it as if it were the only truth.

Do you think the following professionals (always) practice what they preach?
-politicians (Y / N)
-police (Y / N)
-parents (Y / N)
-preachers (Y / N)
-physicians (Y / N)
-professors (Y / N)
-psychiatrists (Y / N)
-pharmacists (Y / N)
-presidents (Y / N)

Ask Yourself:
  1. What advice do you love to dish out others?
  2. When was the last time you caught yourself (not) practicing what you were preaching?
