Read More »Let us give a practical example of someone with good intentions and another person with bad intentions that could happen in real life in order to make things clear. A good example in this particular case is two co-workers who do the exact same job. Let’s just say for the easiness of measurement that they are both equally smart and equally skilled. They both work equally hard and do their work equally well. The only difference is that one of them likes their work and tries to do it as well as he/she can because he/she finds it important to deliver quality work for the company. This person’s actions are pure and ethical. In other words, this person has good intentions. The other person does it purely to avoid punishment from the boss and because he/she gets paid well and doesn’t want trouble at work. This person’s actions are more guided by fear of punishment and for personal gain than good will. This person’s actions are less pure and more or less based on some form of reward. That person has bad/ill intentions. Even though both seem to do their work equally good at first glance, their intentions are not the same. Which means that eventually, given enough time, the results of both persons will not stay the same. You might say, well they both do an equally good job, so it’s all good, no? Well not exactly. In the short-term, they will both work equally well and produce the same results. However, in the long-term, lets say a few months to a couple of years down the road, they won’t deliver an equal job anymore. This is because one person does it because their intrinsic value is to deliver a good product because they like their work. While the other person does it purely for the rewards in the form of money, prestige or good graces and to avoid punishment. He/she is not intrinsically motivated to deliver a good product. Figuring out other people’s true intentions and more important, being conscious of your own helps to put yourself on the right course to reach your goals. Figuring out someone’s true intentions also allows you to protect yourself from potentially dangerous or manipulative people and situations that you could get tangled up in.
