Fruits of your labor

From the Bhagavad Gita:

“You have the right to work, but for the work’s sake only. You have no right to the fruits of the work. … They who work selfishly for results are miserable.”

This wisdom sinks deeply.

The fruit will come in due time, perhaps. Either way, don’t let it be your focus.

Keep your gaze upon the work at hand.
