About this Quote
This quote by Vince Poscente motivates us to be truthful with ourselves and to practice what we preach. It suggests that if we are honest with ourselves and live our lives in accordance with our worths, we will find the motivation to do what we recommend others to do. This is because when we live our lives in a manner that is consistent with our beliefs, we are most likely to be motivated to continue doing so. In addition, living a lie can be draining and can result in sensations of guilt and pity. For that reason, by being sincere with ourselves and walking our talk, we can discover the motivation to do what we recommend others to do.
