    Withholding judgement on someone’s words until you see their actions is an important one to me. As is the flip-side to that - if someone shows you who they are: believe them.

    Public figures are good practice for fine-tuning your response to both of these.

    Call yourself what you like, declare your position this way or that, fine, but Actions > Words.
