One of the mistaken certainties or misconceptions most people operate under is that you get what you want in life by what you DO, or through the actions you take. Most people believe that the DOING or action part is what makes things happen. However, this causes you to create in reverse.

If you analyze it, 90% of most people's actions are spent trying to compensate for inappropriate thought.
