To learn something but not to do is really not to learn. To know something but not to do is really not to know.
Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do.
Thought is the seed of action; but action is as much its second form as thought is its first. It rises in thought, to the end that it may be uttered and acted. Always in proportion to the depth of its sense does it knock importunately at the gates of the soul, to be spoken, to be done.
I have been impressed with the urgency of doing. Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Being willing is not enough; we must do.
Success is a journey, not a destination. The doing is often more important than the outcome.
Never by reflection, but only by doing is self- knowledge possible to one.
The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.
You see, in life, lots of people know what to do, but few people actually do what they know. Knowing is not enough! You must take action.
Happiness is found in doing, not merely possessing.
I hear, I know. I see, I remember. I do, I understand.
Diplomacy is to do and say the nastiest things in the nicest way.
Well done is better than well said.
Science is about knowing; engineering is about doing.
If you really want to do something, go and do it; don't just talk about it.
A non-doer is very often a critic-that is, someone who sits back and watches doers, and then waxes philosophically about how the doers are doing. It's easy to be a critic, but being a doer requires effort, risk, and change.
Long ago I learned nothing gets done by just wishing it. You have to do it.
Saying that I've THOUGHT about it doesn't mean that I'm DOING it.
Knowledge must come through action.
You can read about it all you want, but there is no substitute for just doing it.
Determine never to be idle. No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time who never loses any. It is wonderful how much may be done if we are always doing.
You don't get anything done by planning
When it comes to strategy, ponder less and do more.
Creativity is thinking up new things. Innovation is doing new things.
I'm kinda doing a lot of stuff.
The thrill isn't in the winning, it's in the doing.
