Perhaps. Robespierre certainly thought he was acting rationally, as did any other number of groups that centered there actions on any arbitrary pinciples.
It isn't just about being rational, but being balanced. We are emotional beings, but we aren't just emotional beings.
Changing behaviour is harder than people say it is :)

I am just a bit over two months without smoking a cigarette. I emphatically agree.
