Doing right

Solving problems can be messy. Physical therapy can be uncomfortable. Mediation can be awkward. Reconciliation can be embarrassing.

But we know: doing the right thing sometimes means doing the hard thing.

It’s not that hard is always right and easy is always wrong. But we’re often faced with situations where doing the right thing means taking action ... and the easier thing is to do nothing.

After all, if doing the right thing was easy, we’d collectively do the right things more often.

If that’s the case, then how can we engineer our personal lives so that doing the right things is easy? How can we lubricate that machinery?

And for those in business and government, how can we orchestrate systems and organizations so that doing the right thing isn’t harder, but easier?
