It’s the action, not the fruit of the action
It’s the action, not the fruit of the action, that’s important. You have to do the right thing. It may not be in your power, may not be in your time, that there’ll be any fruit. But that doesn’t mean you stop doing the right thing. You may never know what results come from your action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result.
~~ Mahatma Gandhi ~~
Action is, of course, very important to produce any result. And it’s a great ideal to do the right thing and not to worry about the fruits but, unfortunately, most of us want just the fruits and don’t care much about right or wrong action except perhaps pay a lip service once in a while.
