In many situations, effort is praised even if the outcome isn’t ideal. Why do you think effort holds such importance? Do you believe effort should matter as much as results, or should results come first?
People value effort because it shows intention, not just outcome.
Results can depend on luck or external factors, but effort reflects character, persistence, and honesty in trying. It also signals that someone cared enough to invest time and energy, which builds trust even when the result isn’t perfect.
Without effort you can never archive good results so I believe you need effort to archive something more meaningful and your results is what entails how much effort you have made
