“It is no use walking anywhere to preach unless our walking is our preaching.”
— Francis of Assisi

Simplified Meaning:
The quote is about the importance of practicing what you preach. Instead of just telling others how to behave or what to do, your own actions should reflect those teachings. Imagine a teacher telling students to always be kind, but then acting mean to others. The students are less likely to listen to what the teacher says because the teacher is not leading by example. For advice, think about how you can show honesty if you want others to be honest. If you always tell the truth and behave truthfully, people see that and learn from your behavior. This way, your actions teach more strongly than your words ever could. By living the values you talk about, you inspire others naturally and genuinely.
