Intentions Do Not Control: 10-17-2024

1. Intentions are siblings of expectations because both have little to do with what arrives.
2. Discover what behaviors you are incentivizing because that will cause results, not your intentions.
3. Hell is full of people who claim good purposes, but Heaven is full of people who claim good results.
4. Prepare for the results of the results (second-order consequences) of your actions, interventions, and policies because they are crucial, unlike your intentions.
5. Understanding and using positive, proven methods and procedures is better than relying on good intentions, which notoriously produce bad results when left to themselves.
