Re: The Sledgehammer Effect

As much as I would like to dive into the rabbit hole of individual_vs_team preaching (both are right and emphasizing either too much is a mistake); I will instead point us back at the original post, and the subject of contradictions that Jane raised.

The title of this thread is "The Butterfly Effect". However, I don't recall any butterflies in the situation that lead to this discussion. There were purposeful sledgehammers and grenades. Jane's point about contradictions is an important one. It deserves some serious thought.

Leave bad habits behind. Decide to improve. Choose a path to success.
