Acharya Prashant explains that frustration arises when one's seeing or understanding exceeds their intent to act, especially when holding the false belief that seeing alone is sufficient for attainment. He emphasizes that the equation of life is transparent and direct: if one does not have something, it is because they did not truly want it or because they wanted something else instead. While one might get lost in an endless maze of possibilities and excuses for why a goal was not reached, the reality remains that the objective was not attained. He clarifies that in the realm of the subject, genuine effort is equivalent to attainment itself. Since no external situation can deprive an individual of their power to make a genuine effort, there is no room to blame circumstances. Ultimately, the lack of attainment is a reflection of a lack of genuine volition and effort.
