Tawakkul and Effort

I've been wishing for something from Allah SWT and making dua for it for almost two years. People keep telling me to have tawakkul, but I haven't really put in the work. Like, I haven't given it my all. How can I truly rely on Allah when I haven't done my best? I want to believe that I'm trying and that Allah will provide what's best for me, but deep down I know my efforts are lacking. Is it foolish to hope for that wish from Allah without putting in full effort?

Sis, I feel this so hard. Sometimes we fool ourselves thinking dua alone is enough. But istighfar and actually moving your feet? That's the real combo. May Allah make it easy for you.

Honestly, it's not foolish to hope, but it's a wake-up call. Maybe this restlessness is Allah nudging you to step up. Don't let your wish stay just a wish.
