“The way to maintain joy in your work life is to enjoy the process without being attached to results. This is work for its own sake more than for the rewards you may reap. Which doesn’t mean you don’t pay attention and strive to reach the career goals you’ve set; it simply means that you don’t identify those goals as your primary motivation. You are not always in control of how things turn out. If a job doesn’t work out the way you’d envisioned, you might feel like a failure and believe that your time was wasted. But if you put your heart into the process of work and recognized that your spiritual growth was in the journey itself as much as in the destination, then you’d know that no time was wasted at all. What appeared to be failure would contribute to success in the next try, and the one after that.”
