I only care about the best practices for making the RIGHT things happen. The cat can push the vase on the floor and make things happen, that doesn't mean it was

  Yes, but besides the title, that just says "things happen", the whole post talks focuses on making the right things happen. Were you just ranting about the title? Seriously?

    Seriously? You didn't pick up that NO, this is a worthless post. The cat understands action reaction. That is making a thing happen. The right things are about knowing when to stop and do nothing to let things work out. It is about not just having a list of "if then" statements to run your life. This is a bunch of half-thought through "pearls of wisdom" in the form of "if then" statements none of which will make the right things happen. I might as well pick up a Self Help book written by the founder of an MLM.

      >Seriously? You didn't pick up that NO, this is a worthless post. It might be a "worthless post" but for totally different reason than not telling you what the "right things" are and how to "make them happen". It (rightly) assumes you can figure something such encompassing as your targets by yourself -- and only concerns itself with some of the technical details. Heck, it even gets down to making some "right things happen", like when advising: "Tell people when their behavior is undermining the success of a shared outcome". You'd be surprised how many people DON'T do that. Or this: "If it is 80% done, and getting it to perfect is going to take a lot more effort, ship it, and fix it later."
