Jane Austen said it isn't what we say or think that defines us, but what we do. The speaker argues that personal stories about who we are matter less than concrete actions: fixing your flaws, practicing kindness, taking care of yourself.

Jane Austen said, it isn't what we say or think that defines us, but what we do. And I think that's an ample reminder when so much of what goes on today is us telling ourselves stories about who we are or what we're not or what we can and what we cannot do. But in reality, it comes down to what we're actually doing. What are we doing about it? Are we taking steps to improve in the areas that we need to improve? Are we being kind to others? Are we taking care of ourselves? It's not what goes on in your mind. It's not what you're telling yourself that matters. It's what you're actually doing about it.
