Success does not lie in doing any random thing. That's the first, the most important, and probably the last thing. Do you know why you are doing a certain thing? Are you sure what is worthy enough to be done? That's the moot question. Choose the right thing to do. And in that lies success. And in that lies immediate success. Immediate success implies that you have been successful right in the moment of the choice itself. You don't have to wait for the outcome. In fact, if you have to wait for the outcome to determine whether you have been successful or not, then you are already unsuccessful. Choose the right option. Make the right decision. The concept that we carry is: The real battle lies in attainment of the goal. The real battle does not really lie in the attainment of the goal. It lies in determination of the goal. What goal are you picking for yourself? And why? If you fight the wrong battle, isn't victory worse than defeat. What's the point in speeding down the wrong road? You must know who you are and what you really need. Who you are when you are not defined by others. Who you are when you are not ruled by your animal body. Who is that you are? Once you know the nature of yourself, you also know what your self is really asking for, longing for, and that makes your decisions. Inside you are already victorious if you have made the right decision. Outside, it may appear to people that you have lost a lot or won a lot, depending on how the future unfolds. But you, in your heart, know fully well that it is not about how things show up in the future. Irrespective of what the outcome of your decision is, you stand by it, you live by it, and that is success. There is no success in chasing a stupid goal and managing to attain it. If the goal in the first place is unworthy, what glory is there in attaining it more speedily than others. We all are dissatisfied, we all are restless, irrespective of whether we attain those goals or not. Ever seen any person satisfied with the goals he has attained? In fact the levels of dissatisfaction are hardly different between the victor and a loser. Whatever is not what you do. You have to be extremely careful about what you do. Much more thought, much more consideration must go into what is worthy to be done. So pause, reflect, take your time, be open and alert and inquisitive. Time is precious and not to be squandered chasing unworthy goals.

If you're fighting the wrong battle, victory is worse than defeat.

08:32 - 10:16 If the goal in first place is unworthy, what glory is there in attaining it more speedily than others. And mind you, more often than not, the common usual goals that we find people chasing are unworthy. The proof of that is that we all are dissatisfied, we all are restless, irrespective of whether we attain those goals or not? Ever seen any person satisfied with the goals he has attained? In fact the levels of dissatisfaction are hardly different between a victor and a loser. The victorious one does feel satisfied for a short time and after that the same old fire of discontentment comes to consume him again. Why? Because that which he so effortfully won or attained was probably not worthy of being chased in the first place.

[@raghavaggiwal6841]

10:19 - 11:00 Do not ask, how do I get success in whatever I do. You are trivializing action. You are saying, what will I do, whatever! No, no, no, whatever is not what you do. You have to extremely careful about what you do. Much more thought, much more consideration must go into what is worthy of being done. So pause, reflect, take your time, be open and alert and inquisitive. Life is precious, time is not to be squandered in chasing unworthy goals!

A better question could be how can I love what I do... The answer then would be that what is right can only be loved...whst cannot be loved can only be lusted for.

[@jayantchouhan9981]

We all want to be successful , but in what terms and at what expense , Acharya ji wants us to realize that most of indulge in random goals thinking of them worthy but if we enquire deeply they doesn't hold much value, first we should know what's worth achieving, and when you do efforts to attain it ,that toil itself is success , you don't need a result or report card to tell you that you have succeeded,and that success is the one that will being joy.
