Why Do We Fail DESPITE Our Best Intentions?

Why Do We Fail DESPITE Our Best Intentions?

Sure I totally agree, everyone of us, regardless of our unique circumstances, everyone of us have our BEST INTENTIONS once we set our mind to achieve a goal. But are we aware that the SUCCESS to FAILURE ratio is pegged to 5:2 wherein on average, for every 5 FAILURES, there are 2 SUCCESSES.  So, the disturbing question is  Despite all the givens in life, WHY Do We Fail DESPITE Our BEST INTENTIONS❓❓❓

Indeed that's the biggest understatement, that 'THE ROAD TO HELL IS PAVED WITH GOOD INTENTIONS' because a lot more INTENTIONS are NOT just GOOD enough but some are the BEST ever INTENTIONS one can have in life.  Yet, based on the 5:2 ratio, we are miserably FAILING?  Where did our BEST INTENTIONS go then❌❌❌

Let's take a moment to think of a task you wish to accomplish in the next 3 months.  It should be something specific, like repainting your room OR completing an online course so that you can judge definitively IF and WHEN it has been completed.  BUT as you think about it right now, how likely would we say it is that you will finish the task by the end of summer💎💎💎

Oh Oh, chances are, your prediction may be too optimistic.  And you are LESS LIKELY  to finish the task than you think you can.  BUT remember, you did have the BEST INTENTIONS right from the start but even BEST INTENTIONS involves various variables such as the feasibility of achieving the goal you set on top of your   BEST INTENTIONS📌📌📌

In fact, various studies all end up with the same conclusion, that says, 'SELF PREDICTIONS' tend to be optimistic because people base them on their BEST INTENTIONS without considering HOW readily those BEST INTENTIONS can be translated into a concrete result in the future.  DON'T get me wrong though.  We're NOT here to dampen our BEST INTENTION.  In fact, let's keep SUSTAINING that momentum of BEST INTENTIONS but let us validate our estimations based on realistic assumptions✅✅✅
