Ability Isn’t Enough

Ability doesn’t justify activity. In other words, just because we can do something doesn’t mean we should. If we act simply because we can, without thinking about the implications of our actions, we do ourselves and others a dis-service.

In some instances, the best action is inaction. For example, if we are enabling dysfunctional behavior in others, we should reconsider those actions. If we are doing the same thing, but expecting different results (insanity), we should reconsider our actions. 

What are some things you should stop doing? Are they evident to you?
