Worthless letters

"And that Prince who bases his power entirely on... words, finding himself completely without other preparations, comes to ruin;"



As we always hear from others - words must be backed up by actions. If I may give a typical situation, a student who depends on just words may not be able to finish what he started. Sure saying things are powerful, but it remains useless if not put into reality. Like a prince who depends on marvelous plans, it must be made to be executed. There shall also stand other possibilities and alternatives.

It must be guaranteed that once the plan has been made, there will be further adjustments because nothing may be permanent. We will know the strongest team if we knew its leader with feasible plans. Same as the power to integrate ideas having push factors such as materials needed, cooperation between individuals and unity.

I say that in reality, we cannot be boxed into pure words, for the thoughts we came to know should be visible in practice, or supported by other forces. When the time comes and we have to be prepared for a banquet, a calamity, a game or a decision, we need all the resources we can get.
