Do your best, and release your attachment to the outcome
The secret of success is non-attachment to results;
doing your best at the moment,
and letting the results take care of themselves.
- J. Donald Walters
To work without attachment is to work without the expectation
of reward or fear of any punishment in this world or the next.
Work so done is a means to the end, and God is the end.
- Ramakrishna
Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions;
reality can be attained only by someone who is detached.
- Simone Weil
You are attached to what you attack.
- Robert Shea
The Buddha discovered that the block to enlightenment is ATTACHMENT to the things of this world, rather than the things themselves. This great revelation is known as the Middle Way - living in moderation, without either gluttony or denial, and without attachment.
Your best is ALWAYS good enough.
After you have truly done your best,
release your attachment to the outcome.
