Doers and Do-nots
Heard of the latest fashion scandal?
Basically, a fashion designer substituted his tags
for off-the-rack tags on department store clothes he passed off for his own, at a price upgrade of tens of thousands a piece. He got caught because he forgot to unstitch one of the rtw labels.
Today, passing by
a wall at eastwood where fashion critics and columnists have their faces plastered, i am strangely taken back to the notion that
some people talk,
and some people do.
In an ideal world, we all walk our talk.
Ideally, we are so good at what we do, so overflowing with passion for it, that we lead our fields by example, by results.
It would then be great if those exceptional at what they do could also teach well.
It would be great if every clinician could be a good academician.
It would be great if every academician knew how to do well what they teach.
Too often, however, those who can't do
just adore criticizing what they don't really grasp.
Often, those who can do things aren't able to share their knowledge.
Often, those who can't do things are particularly good at talking.
I wonder if we could all stop cursing and criticizing the darkness.
I wonder if we could start looking for the light, head for it, and describe the journey so others might take up a similar path.
May we more often walk our talk, say what we mean, and mean what we say.
