Wise tiger, that Hobbes! Our actions are always perfectly correlated with who we are being, and our being arises from who we have created ourselves to be (whether by choice or by defaultic happenstance).
When we let ourselves be present to our own actions, we gain insight into who we are being as a person, no matter what we may say or insist.
When we see with eyes unvarnished our actions in the collective, we gain insight to who we are being as a group/community/nation, no matter what our slogans may be.
