Every day in our personal and professional lives, we face choices between what’s legal, available, or within our power and what’s right. The choice is difficult because we recognize the “right” choice is always subjective.
When we’re on our game, we choose by using tools such as critical thinking, experiments, beliefs, and personal experience.
But the easy path is a powerful force. The easy path is always what’s legal, available, or within our power. The easy path is usually defensible as well.
Don’t get sucked in. Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.
