A man without ambition is dead. A man with ambition but no love is dead. A man with ambition and love for his blessings here on earth is ever so alive. Having been alive, it won't be so hard in the end to lie down and rest.

Some fools confuse LOVE itself as their ambition in life! :der:

[Visalakshi Ramani]

There are numerous opportunities to learn about good values. They arise by reading books, listening to others and observing the deeds of great men. Having learnt the values, it is but natural to talk about them to others. But advising others is futile if you do not yourself practice them. Realising this, inculcate good qualities in yourself before imparting to others. - Sri Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamigal

To put put these in a nutshell...

Practice makes perfect.

Practice before you preach!
