The market does not care how long you worked on something or how well you did it. Effort is not rewarded. The market cares only if what you've done is a fit for their needs.

The effort does count as they only look for the result so u would have had to give effort to end with that result , therefore effort does count but maybe only ur eyes may see it but it is worth it.
True, but it's a misconception to think you're going to get points for effort. Effort without success is like getting an award for participating.
Well yes that's true but it can still lead to things either for the good or bad but u would never know unless u put effort in!
@georgiacollard I don't disagree to the value of effort itself. Just keep in mind that there is rarely recognition for effort without achievement. Appreciate your own effort, but don't expect others to do the same.
