Interesting point about requisite effort. I find usually effort is proportional to passion or motivation - if you're not really keen to do something, you'll never put effort in. Cheers mate, keep up the good work over on PI. Thanks for your thoughts Bamboo Forest. Interesting point about requisite effort.

You write, "You need to study what actually has gone wrong." I think you're hitting on something important with this post. Sometimes, what has gone wrong is as simple as we didn't put in the requisite effort to succeed! Yes, that is often the case. And sometimes, trial and error has much to do with failing, then trying harder, failing again, then trying harder, and then because the requisite effort was made: succeeding. Of course, sometimes our strategy needs a good revamp too, which I think you touch on here. I enjoyed this post.
