There’s a vast difference between goals and outcomes: a goal (whether it’s a written goal in a “program” or an unwritten goal of therapy, an activity, or service) is something we hope will occur, and an outcome is what really does occur. And while no one has an infallible crystal ball, it seems we can be more thoughtful and question, wonder, and/or do whatever it takes to anticipate outcomes before going too far down a path. And, as an old Turkish proverb advises, “No matter how far you have gone on a wrong road, turn back.”
