Intention vs Action & Effort

Intention x ZERO Action x ZERO Effort = Wishful thinking

Wishful Thinking when made known to another person = NATO

Intention x Action x WRONG Effort = Barking Up the Wrong Tree

Intention x Action x SUITABLE Effort = Potential to Successfully Reach your Goal

In short:

• Having wishful thinking and NATO gets you nowhere near your goal.
• Barking up the wrong tree gets you nowhere too... but you might learn something for trying anyway...
• Putting in the right amount of effort and the right type of effort will bring you closer to your goals

No amount of "What if..." and "I wish..." will help you get a real answer. At the end of the day, we are the ones who are responsible to help ourselves out in whatever situation we might be in.
