“Expect nothing. Accept anything.” -Jerry Seinfeld
“When we just sort of focus on the small things, the big things often accidentally end up taking care of themselves.” -Paul Thomas Anderson

Perhaps the reason you’re not getting the result you want is you’re too focused on the result.
Focus on what you can control. Which is the work. Just keep doing the work. Day after day after day.

Ironically, when you’re in that groove, you could care less about the result. You just wanna get back to work.
