I believe that people make sense. People don't always do the right thing and they don't always choose the best path, but that's not because they're stupid, or lazy, or crazy, or bad. My job is to help people figure out why they're doing what they're doing. Once we understand that, finding the solution is almost always easy. In fact, at that point, people usually find their own solutions.
