Good Intentions + Bad Decisions = Bad Results
Good intentions are not enough. Wishful thinking may bring feelings of warmth and hope, but good decisions are essential.
I love this line from Jim Collins:
Bad decisions taken with good intentions…are still bad decisions. —Jim Collins Click To Tweet

Mark – This is so true. I have made my share of bad decisions with the best of intentions. Unlike those with bad intentions, someone with good intentions can learn from the bad result and improve the decision next time.
Roger…the key, I believe, is to learn from mistakes (or even better, the mistakes of others) and improve next time. 😉
