Direction Determines Destination

"...In the book [The Principle of the Path] [Andy] Stanley unpacks this simple but profound principle: "direction determines destination."

This principle may be simple BUT we miss it so often! As Stanley points out in chapter 3, there is a huge disconnect that goes on in people's minds. Many people (myself included) do not connect the dots between the choices they make and the outcomes they experience. Stanley says: "They've come to believe the popular notion that as long as their intentions are good, as long as they do their best and try their hardest, it doesn't really matter which path they take. They believe somehow they will end up in a good place. But life doesn't work that way." (pg. 20)."
