It means not only do you need to talk the talk but you must also follow through and walk the walk.
In other words..."talk is cheap" if you don't follow through with action.
A person who simply talks all the time about what s/he is going to do is like an untended garden -- sloppy, choking with crap and in danger of going under like the beautiful plants in a garden which get crowded out and eventually killed by the tenacious weeds.
Thought, word, deed is a Buddhist saying. Ya need all three!

Fortunes are not telling the future. Instead, they are a reminder of the truths which surround us. I'd say your fortune is very true. It means that people who are willing to persevere a little longer, and take just one more step than the last, will have much more of a life than those who don't. The race doesn't go to the fastest or the strongest, but to the one who is the most capable of continuing to move. Motion is one of the most fundamental elements of the universe. This is a reminder that when you keep moving, you see more. It's very true indeed!

If you walk around just saying you are going to do things but never actually do them then you are like a garden of weeds -- unappealing and with nothing of merit.

Hi dude
Like politicians who say great for the votes but not fulfilling the actual words he said makes him a great man whose words are nothing but a not to be mentioned lie or just waste..
Got it through example.

I guess a fancy metaphorical way of saying that your the man of your word... As in keeping your promises o_0. I hope that answers your question.

A person who is all talk and no action is worthless.
