So much talk, fewer deeds, and actions - this is the golden rule in every relation. People who make many promises cannot realize all, and instead of realization, you will get excuses.
Arthur was never a man of too many words. He said to his wife Lena "I love you too" and the rest was unnecessary for him. Lena wanted a more romantic man, with candles and flowers, but Arthur was a working man, and his love was firm and stable, but not like in fairy tales.
They separated because Lena wanted to live like in romance novels, with deep passion in the heart, and to be wild and spontaneous. So her next husband Victor was really a master of imagination. But unfortunately, he was without a job and all financial burden was on Lena's wallet. He promised to find a job soon, but that soon was long term, it last for years. And when Lena got angry, he said:
- Sorry, but I had no luck in searching job. All this is not good for me. I am not a manual worker, I am not for office because I am allergic to dust and that annoying people are disturbing to my nerves.
Lena had a big regret because of Arthur, but it was no way back. Arthur gets married to another woman who appreciated his stability and his deeds.
Promises are nice, but everyone can make good promises. How to realize it, this is another part of the story. If you think too much, you will always stand in one place. There will be no progress, just pending time. As much you will delay, your aim will be farther away from you.
So make promises when you can make a good realization immediately. That will be fair to other people. Promises are worthy only if you once in past did something exactly how you imagined. When promises are filled, trust is here.
