The best approaches, it seems, demand no loyalty to their outward strictures; they encourage me to do what it takes to be fulfilled.

The accountability lies in the results.

  1. Pragmatism, i.e. whatever works.

  2. What about your contention to remain ethical? Here you seem to suggest that all that matters is results. While I tend to somewhat agree with that thought in some situations (I do believe that murder is sometimes the best approach), I have to wonder if there is a line that should not be crossed. Just thought I’d play the other side of the fence today 🙂

    1. I guess the clarification here would be that in the long-term, being ethical is a desired result. Because if I’m not loyal to my personal code of ethics, dissonance will arise in my psyche, detracting from my ability to function, hampering my perception, and also invade any attempt I make to rest and rejuvenate.

      1. Ah… So, you still want to be able to go to sleep at night with the comfort that, while you achieved results, you also did little to no harm to others?

      2. Absolutely. At a certain point, it is straight up about function. If you cant rest and enjoy things as is because of past actions, it drags down every endeavor.
