Easier Done than Said?

PixelsSquared

We've all heard the phrase "easier said than done" but what things would be easier done than said? I've been pondering on this question a lot recently.

Giving someone driving directions. Meaning I can show you easier than I can tell you.

Asking to have Worcestershire sauce added to anything. It's easier to just get it yourself rather than try to pronounce it..lol.

I guess the best example to this question is a comparison between a Kinesthetic learner & a Theorectical one.

Theory learners register information best through discussion while kinesthetics need to see & feel to understand.

I'm a visual learner, I need images or to analyze something by sketching it to fully understand.

I can eat 8 cheeseburgers - some people cannot - so that is deffo, for me, easily done than said.

@plopppo you deserve a trophy

I forgot to mention that they are quarter pounder ones - so that is like 2+ pound of burgers (not including the bread and all the trimmings).

Yeh.

It's the way I roll.

I've eaten 4 already tonight - but I am saving the other 4 for the Super Moon.

Plus, I've eaten a ton of other stuff too.

I'm not even fat - well, not what you would expect from someone who annihilates food in seconds.

Something that's easier done than said is teaching someone how to do something on the computer.

For me, almost everything is easier to do than start explaining something.

Haven't learning styles been more or less discredited though?

WORST-Steh-Sure sauce. Emphasis on the first syllabel. Sure, not Shire. My husband drives me crazy over this. LOL It's one of those words, a lot like vegetables, where you are actually compressing some of the letters used in the spelling. Don't ask me why, I didn't make up this language. I just use it. Comparable is another one. Most these days mispronounce it, too. It's Com-PRA-ble. Not Com-PARE-able.

Back on topic, sometimes it's easier to wash the dishes myself than to have someone else do it. At least then, I know they're clean.

As an RN, there are a lot of things at work that are easier for me to do than to explain to someone else. Something that takes me maybe 5-10 minutes to do will take 20-30 to explain to someone else: what to do, what to look for, what to watch out for and what to do if something's wrong. Still, it has to be done - we've all been new at one time or another, and we all need to learn.

this is why I call it wort sauce cos I cannot pronounce it correctly, everyone I speak to knows what I'm talking about anyways.

Easier done than said? Asking my husband to do something.
