doers
Not mere talkers
Doers is the plural of doer—people who take action rather than merely talking or planning.
The word often appears in contrast to thinkers, dreamers, or talkers: We need fewer planners and more doers.
A doer of good deeds performs charitable acts.
In religious contexts, doers of the word are those who live their faith rather than simply professing it.
