Today’s Thought: The Best Predictor of Human Behavior

I had a psychology professor in undergraduate school who said, “The best predictor or human behavior is past behavior.” I’ve remembered it and found it to be true. There’s a big difference between what folks say and what they do. If you want to know a person, watch what they do. If they’ve lied in the past, they’ll lie in the future. If they’ve been kind in past they will be kind in the future. If we take a hard look at ourselves and see things we don’t like, we can change and prove my professor wrong. it takes courage to make that kind of change.
