Validate my parking and my actions plz

We do a lot of crazy and dishonourable things. We may cheat in tests, insult people, backstab people, amongst others but we always seem to want people to agree with our actions and our thought processes behind why we committed those actions. We constantly seek validation to absolve our actions, no matter how grave they turn out to be. It is as if we always want to be justified for our actions and be in the right. What we do not seem to realise is that majority people do not agree with our thinking and our reasoning. 
Our brain has this strange and humane quality called a conscience. It keeps us down to earth and emotionally attached to our actions. every action we do affects our conscience. Most actions are very very harmless and do not really affect our conscience in a big way but actions such as stealing, cursing or even arguing with elders and friends can trigger a feeling of guilt in our minds. Our conscience does not let us forget our actions and makes us repent.
Conscience could be metaphorically described as a nagging wife who nags her husband for every action he does even though it is sometimes for their benefit. 
We constantly seek ways to satisfy this guilty feeling. We use words and phrases like "sorry", "I had no other choice", "it wasn't my fault" or "I didn't do it on purpose" to cover up on their actions. 

There is nothing wrong in seeking validation. To me, this idea of the brain is very intriguing. However, if there is a way we can storm past ahead of seeing validation for our actions, we can definitely become better people. if we are smart, all our actions wont require validation but since we are not, let us work towards it.

cheating

Jean was a three year old girl who did not like going all the way to the bathroom to do her business in the morning. Her father, an economist, told her that if she woke up and went to the bathroom to clean up, he would give her a bag of M&Ms. "Really?" asked Jean. Her father took out a bag of candy and showed it to her. Immediately jean went to the bathroom and came out to receive the goody bag. This system worked well for the first three mornings. Every time she went to the bathroom in the morning she would receive bag of M&Ms. On the fourth day, jean woke up and went to the bathroom at 7:20 and got a candy bag. sSe went again at 7:30 and got another bag. She received a third bag at 7:45 when she went to the bathroom for the third time. Her father realised that no matter how old you are, you can be a cheater.

Humans are born to cheat and it is in our blood. We try to find ways to shorten any kind of work we do, be it completing our homework or inspecting restaurants for rats.
Although cheating is wrong and unethical, we should never leave its side and use it to help ourselves and others around us.

Cheating is fine if there are no future consequences 
Although this can be interpreted in many ways, the best way to express this is that if James Jonah Jameson asks Green Goblin for pictures of Spiderman for money. for the first few days, Green Goblin takes pictures of Spiderman while fighting him, but after a while, buys a halloween Spiderman  costume and sells a bunch of selfies. There is virtually no consequences to cheating in this case.
Your act of cheating, if you should, must be very mild. Cheating should not involve anybody catching onto you for anything in the future. Your actions in the present define your future. Just like how Pablo Escobar's smiling mugshot shot him down from becoming president of Columbia.
Also, never cheat repeatedly. Cheating repeatedly can leave space for mistakes and the risk of getting caught which leads to-
THE END
Every magician knows that if he gets caught, his whole act is over, his name is tarnished, and he is the laughing stock of the audience. Although its possibility can be easily reduced, it is yet very possible to be caught. In a previous example, if Green Goblin got caught cheating, he would most likely be fired. He committed to taking cheated photos as there is no negative future consequences but if he gets caught, its over.
Do not be a moron while cheating
If you really want to get away with cheating, do it properly. Do not leave space for any errors or moronic mistakes. For example, if Green Goblin was to take selfies dressed as Spiderman, it would be a dumb idea to let his ears show or use his trademark bombs in a picture. One must, therefore, be perfect in his methods of cheating.
