Meanwhile, that end or objective can oscillate in obtaining a result, for example quitting smoking, then, to achieve it effectively we We will submit to everything that we consider appropriate to achieve the objective: put on a patch, take a pill that the cardiologist tells us, go out to to walk or to run, among so many alternatives.
