Intentional

I’ve often written about being intentional. But while we try our best to be thoughtful and deliberate, there are many times we’re not.

The reality is … many times, people are not intentional. Including us.

It’s a mistake to assume that others are always intentional in what they do and say. They’re not.

This is not to suggest that people aren’t accountable for their words and actions. Rather, it’s a reminder. Sometimes that long, detailed story we invent — the one about what’s going on inside someone else’s head — sometimes we get that story wrong.
