In behavioral programs there are several questions that people ask,
including:
1. How generalizable are the results? That is, will the work in a
variety of settings?
2. Also, can the behaviors be maintained by real world consequences.

It sure is better to do things in a planful fashion. If one doesn't
have a general idea of where one is going, then it's often the case
that one is headed for long term failure.

I sure agree about what you're saying. Two quotes come to mind:
Franklin said: "We should eat to live and not live to eat!" And Seneca
the Roman stoic said: "Happiness is not wanting what you cannot have."
Pretty glum views but true.

Welcome to the list!

Yours truly,
