If a person engages in acts they subjectively believe to be best/correct/right and the determination of the quality of the act is based on the Subject at the time of action; then it directly follows that any action the Subject engages in is best/correct/right.
Otherwise we must say the Subject engages in actions they subjectively believe to not be best/correct/right.
Do you think a guy cheating on his wife believes it is the "right" thing to do? Or a heroin addict hitting a needle after three years clean?
No, I disagree with your thesis. I think people are perfectly capable of doing things that they consider wrong. That's because morality depends on ideas or a world view, and emotional and hormonal motivators can override them.
