Live true to your own values
‘Do as I say, not as I do’ has as many repercussions for adults as it does for children. People see you for what you do, and that determines who you are, no matter what you say.
The way to be an inspiration then is to live true to your own values. It’s to take leadership, if only for yourself, and to forge your own path.
If you want to be an inspiration, don’t do what’s right in the eyes of society. Do what’s right in your eyes.
That’s how we can do what we say, then say what we do. And that determines who we are.
