No, I don't think it even implies effort. An emotional need simply finds an outlet. What I mean is, when anyone needs an outlet, it should to be expressed in a way that comes naturally. For the most part, that involves embracing existing methods that move the person. Occasionally that natural outlet is innovative and new--especially in creative people. But they don't have to plan it, or even get it wrong once. It's natural.
