means
Has in mind
Means connects to the idea of how something is accomplished or made possible.
A means is a method or instrument: The bus was her only means of transportation.
In the plural, means refers to financial resources: a woman of means, living beyond your means.
A means to an end is something valued only for what it achieves, not for itself.
By all means grants permission emphatically; by no means denies something absolutely.
