"Without action, the best intentions in the world are nothing more than that: intentions." - Jordan Belfort

Focused intention on our pursuit, consciously developing the passion and fire to continue down a path of intent towards a goal, aspiration, or objective is fundamental in our search for happiness. It can provide purpose, fulfillment, and limitless potential supply of happiness. However, while all of these things are valid aspects in said pursuit, without taking action, it can have a counterpoint outcome and leave us feeling less. When we put our thoughts, feelings, and ideas into a ship of intention, driving towards a harbor of achievement, our emotions can hang in the balance, which provides a deep and profound drive, while also exposing the grit, determination, and investment towards the intended outcome.

The term "Take action" is somewhat of a cliché throughout life, and I, for one, can admit that I have most definitely had intention on the pursuit of something. I have embraced the initial excitement and euphoria of the endgame, based on the desire to achieve something great. However, I have failed to act or failed to devote myself fully and complete the action required to achieve it.

Taking action is the catalyst that transforms mere intentions into tangible results. It is through action that we fill the gap between where we are and where we want to be, paving the way in our search for happiness. Without action, our dreams, aspirations, and goals remain suspended in the realm of possibility, never truly materialising into the life we aspire for ourselves. In taking action, we empower ourselves to shape our own destiny, to create a life filled with purpose, growth, and fulfillment.
