Do as I say, not as I do

Do as I say not as I do is self-explanatory. It means don't make the mistakes I've made in life. Do what I tell you, don't follow my example.
Never drink and drive!

English Proverb: Do as I say, not as I do

Never pick up smoking!

Most times when people are giving you advice it is a case of do as I say, not as I do.

Everyone is full of advice.

Everyone always wants to be helpful when you are having difficulties.

You see, really the thing is that most people do not take their advice.

The person who has been smoking for decades tells young people not to smoke.

The alcoholic advises people not to drink and drive.

And the drug dealer’s advice?

Of course, don’t do drugs.

If we all tried to set a good example instead of having a do-as-I-say-not-as-I-do attitude, we might have a shot at making the world a better place.
