| "Boys, Be Ambitious!", said William Smith Clark. There is nothing wrong with being ambitious. But, it depends on the stages of life as Carl Young pointed out. “Thoroughly unprepared, we take the step into the afternoon of life. Worse still, we take this step with the false presupposition that our truths and our ideals will serve us as hitherto. But we cannot live the afternoon of life according to the program of life’s morning, for what was great in the morning will be little at evening and what in the morning was true, at evening will have become a lie.” ― Carl Gustav Jung |
"Detachment from outcome" resonates with me so much these days. I don't care the outcome anymore. It is astonishing to see this happen to me. It seems it is a confirmation that finally I have discovered the thing I really want to do with my life.
