Actions

What really defines one action? Is it the intentions, effort or the results?  To start one must definitely have some kind of intentions to begin with or that’s not the case?
In life, things don’t always go your way and you make variation to your plan. Eventually, you get drifted off course and you let the flowing water carry you along with the flow. What does this prove at the end? Does it mean that the end result whatever it may be is nullified because there weren’t any intentions in the first place?
What if you put in so much effort in trying to achieve something? At the end of the day, you failed and it’s a one off thing which you can’t keep trying again to let it go right. Does it mean the effort is wasted?
To some people the results are the most important because to them the result is what people can see. Intentions are inside of you, as long as you don’t expose yourself by telling others the intention. Other than you who else can certainly confirm that that’s not your original intentions. Effort is what people can see and judge for themselves however not all the time effort can be seen as well.
I’m beginning to think. What if one doesn’t have any intentions/motive, just does whatever he wants, doesn’t care about anything and whatever that outcome may come out to, fills in that to the intention. It’s like working backwards what if using results one can justify the reason behind it. Of cause this is just a hypothesis but it seems quite an interesting concept.
