There are 5 phrases that are only good in the beginning, that are only good when adversity is not sinking in yet. People will say it just to look good but when they feel that it is hard and when reality strikes their arrogance... they cannot say those words anymore. They become mute, they can't even look you in your face.
1. I will die just to win this game. Some players will say this to pump up his teammates, they will say it just to look courageous and confident but when the difficulty of the game is already there... they were panicking, they were shying way from losing and winning, they can't hold the ball, they can't defend, they can't even move. Speaking is one things, dying is another thing. If you will say that you are willing to die just to win the game then you should make a strong effort that is close to dying. Don't just stand there doing nothing... make a move!
2. I can endure all the pain just to have this job. Rookies will say this to their boss if they are not hired yet. And when the times comes when they were already a regular employee... they were always absent, they were always in leave.
3. I love you for the rest of my life. Ladies and gentlemen, say this phrase not because your relationship is still new and full of excitement. Say this phrase even in times of quarreling. You only say I love you because you feel good and you feel in love. You have to say I love you even if you are so sick and tired of your partner, you have to say it even if you don't feel in love anymore so the love will come back again .
4. I will give my best. Can you still give your best when there is no more hope on your sight? Can you still give your best when you think that you are losing? Giving your best is not about saying it, it is about doing it. Do it even if it hurts so badly, do it even if you already lost.
5. It will be done before 10 AM. You set your own deadline of finishing something. You think you really can do it before that time. So what you do is you sit around and relax all day long because you believe in yourself so much, you think that you are really fast and there will be no problems to face. But when you already felt the pressure... you are asking the deadline to be move, you are asking for an extension.
The lesson is this... if you can't back up your words, if you can't walk the talk then you better just shut up because you will just look like a clown in the end, You will look like a man without honor and integrity. If you said something, if you promise something... do it and stand for it no matter what. You can only fulfill your promise if you are willing to feel really uncomfortable. You better say those promises if things are not going well and not when everything is still fine. You se
