A Critic or a Doer – Daily Wisdom
Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on Day 1806 of our Trek, and it’s time to explore another nugget of wisdom, which includes an inspirational quote along with some wise words from Gramps for today’s trek. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. We are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, seek out discernment and insights, and boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before.

Hello, my friend; this is Gramps. Thanks for coming along on today’s trek as we increase Wisdom and Create a Living Legacy. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%2016%3A16andversion=NLT (Proverbs 16:16) How much better to get wisdom than gold, and sound judgment than silver! If you apply the words you hear today, over time, it will help you become more healthy, wealthy, and wise as you continue your daily trek of life. So let’s jump right in with today’s nugget:

Today’s quote is from Wayne Dyer, and it is: A non-doer is very often a critic — that is, someone who sits back and watches doers, and then waxes philosophically about how the doers are doing. It's easy to be a critic, but being a doer requires effort, risk, and change.
A Critic or a Doer


It is so easy to be a critic. That is why so many people are critical of others. However, it is quite another thing to withhold criticism and get off your backside and do something. Being critical of someone or something does not produce anything worthwhile unless you are also prepared to step up, lend a hand, and have a positive impact. Being critical without assisting is like clouds and wind that do not bring rain to dry and arid soil. So instead of being critical, be a doer. Yes, it does require effort, risk, and change which will disrupt your life, but that is what we are called to do. As Christ-followers, we are to help those in need. So let’s look for ways to be a does every day. The Apostle Paul left us this example as was recorded in the Acts of the Apostles



https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts%2020%3A35andversion=NLT (Acts 20:34-35)

You know that these hands of mine have worked to supply my own needs and even the needs of those who were with me. And I have been a constant example of how you can help those in need by working hard. You should remember the words of the Lord Jesus: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’

As you ponder this nugget of wisdom for yourself, please encourage your friends and family to join us and then come along tomorrow for another day of ‘Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.’
