INTENTIONAL -1
unexpected result of intentional action.

having so much talked about the need to be intentional, one do be wondering if being intentional would always guarantee success.
The truth is that, while it has the ability of elevating the chances, the possibility of getting a contrary results (which definitely would be better than not being intentional at all) abounds.
Like I would always say;
TAKING AN ACTION BASED ON A BAD PLAN IS BETTER THAN NOT HAVING ANY PLAN AT ALL.
Nature has its way of sometimes working against our personal intentions, and may sometimes prevail.
One of such records In history is the unpopular event surrounding the "DOOR OF HELL" located at KARAKUM DESERT
Before you conclude, it's not that which just flashed to your mind🤣.
The Karakum Desert, located in Turkmenistan, is known for its stunning landscapes and the unique phenomenon.
It has at least 4 different names
-Darvaza Gas Crater
-Door to Hell
-Gates of Hell
-Shining of Karakum (official name)
This is a natural gas field that collapsed into a crater, and to prevent the spread of methane gas, it was set on fire in 1971.
The crater resulted from a Soviet drilling mishap, causing the release of natural gas. To prevent the spread of methane gas, the decision was made to ignite it, expecting the gas to burn off in a few weeks.
However, the crater has been burning for decades.
since then, it has been a site known for creating a mesmerizing and eerie sight, especially at night when it appears to be a "shining" or flaming pit in the middle of the desert. A very important attraction site for tourists.
_________________________________________
Just like the drilling mishap is a resultant of an intentional action carried out by the Soviet drillers, its possible that your intentional act could result to what you never bargained for.
It's however, on you to devise yet another intentional act to harness the resultant outcome, into a better result.
To prevent the gas spread (which is dangerous to human health), the drillers ignited the already unexpected crater. Still, the result turned to be something else, which is proven to be less harm than if the gas were to be allowed to escape into the atmosphere.
Hello, be intentional, and still be ready to act intentional, should your initial intentional action fail.
A "poorly executed" plan is better than an a good action without plan.
