How can you tell what a person really wants, thinks, feels, believes and is committed to? Simple. You just look at his or her actions. It is not what people say, wish, hope or intend that counts. It is only what they do and especially what they do when faced with temptation or put under pressure.
Someone says, I want to be successful in my career and in life. He actually believe it. But then you observe his behavior. This person arrives at work at the last possible minute, leaves at the firs possible minute and hurries home so that he does not miss the latest episode of his favorite television show. Clearly, based on his behavior, his goal is not to be successful in his career but rather to watch television. How do you know? Because that is exactly what he is doing, every night after work.
