Over the week-end I watched Larry king Live, with Dr.Laura Schlessinger. She is mostly known for hosting, Dr.Laura radio advice call-in show. Dr.Schlessinger has also written a dozen books, which together have sold millions of copies. Her most popular book being, The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands.(I don't need this book for the moment!!)
There were a few things that she said, that struck a few chords in me. One was "Do What I Say, Not What I Do", when Larry King gave a few examples where she has gone astray.
My question is how can one write/talk about advice and not lead by example?
I believe that it’s easy to write/say something. However, if I can't take my own advice and put to practice, how can I expect someone else to do so?
