We benefit when we give thanks for the good intentions behind others' conduct, even if we don't always appreciate the conduct itself.
When we don’t like the conduct, we may assign a negative motivation to it, when in fact good intentions are the source. We may be able to avoid damaging conflict if we can try to focus on the positive intention.
