They dont have to practice what they preach!

They say practice what you preach. I bet you are saying "yeah, thats right, I'm tired of these Christians telling me to do this and they end up doing that". Sure they do mess up in a spectacular fashion, but that is not why I'm bringing this phrase to your attention. I am bringing it to your attention because I suddenly think the phrase is meant to make you not to listen to reason. Why do I say such, well its because of something I read which said most of what you heard and read from those that came before you might be wrong and if it is important to you just research it to make sure. For example: the lion is the king of the jungle, but the lion doesnt live in a jungle or the earliest bird catches the fatest worm, but Apple inc only started selling their iPhone in 2007 when companies like Motorola had a head start, but they are far behind now , Justin Bieber won the American Music Awards' most important category in his early teens. So what I'm saying here is that the one who is trying to sell a better life to you or giving you advice doesnt have to have lived that life or have done the thing that they are advocating. The only thing that you need to decide is whether it is something that you would like for yourself or not. Just in case you are still wondering if this is hogwash or not, think of it like this: in sports, the best teams and athletes have managers or coaches that would otherwise be unknown were it not for these athletes and most of the managers have never reached the top of the fields that their in, but they help others achieve greatness. So the best you can do for yourself is think of yourself as a ghetto Usain Bolt who can run fast, but doesn't know which shoes to wear to make sure he doesn't wake up with blisters on his feet. How will you celebrate the victory the next day if you can't stand up?
