The slang term “Talk the talk, walk the walk” means to not only talk about something, but also demonstrate action or results that align with what was said. It emphasizes the importance of following through with actions rather than just making empty promises or talking without action.
This phrase emphasizes the need to back up one’s words with their actions. It suggests that it is not enough to only talk about something, but one must also take action and prove their abilities or intentions. It is often used to challenge or question someone’s sincerity or capability.
Example 1: “John was always bragging about his basketball skills, but when it came time to play, he couldn’t make a single shot. He needs to learn to talk the talk and walk the walk.”
Example 2: “The new CEO talked about making big changes in the company, but until we see actual improvements, it’s just talk the talk, walk the walk.”
