Professor if I can add to your question on this post, with this quote from the great Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, goes as follows: “I believe that we are solely responsible for our choices, and we have to accept the consequences of every deed, word, and thought throughout our lifetime.” - Elisabeth Kubler-Ross Entirely all our actions have consequences. The relationship is as reliable as the ripples originated by tossing a pebble into a lake. Consequences can be both bad or good. Complications rise when we do not reflect on or realize the consequences of our actions. When one is not aware of the consequences of the behavior, two things can occur. In the situation where the consequences are bad, we run danger of repeating similar mistakes. When

    There are consequences to every decision an individual makes. The end result of impulsive choices could lead to a good outcome, or a bad outcome, but that is not determined by how well you follow standards. In the book Animal Farm, there are a group of Dogs that abide by their leader Napoleon's every rule. They did exactly as they were expected, such as evoke fear, kill other animals, guard the Pigs. Their behaviors do not change the result. Sometimes the result would have worked for them, in other incidents it didn’t. Same goes for Carter, from a popular TV show named Finding Carter. She does the total opposite of what she is expected and told to do. She was raised by a women she thought was her mother; however her whole life was a lie. In

Many times I have been told to consider the consequences of my actions prior to acting. I have found, though, that this may not always be the best approach. I would not argue this to be true in any situation, however.
