TO ENJOY IS LIFE

Secret of happiness on this earth is enjoy doing ones own duty, without much attachment to the fruit of the duty. Attachment to acquisitions or rewards of work only holds us back from moving forward. One must set targets to achieve, as this is important for efficiency of performing duty. But, attachment to results, if not achieved, leads to disappointment (unhappiness), which further reduces the zeal to perform duty. Like our most-desired toys of childhood no-longer interest us now. Likewise, we might discover that our present achievements may mean trivial to us in future. The best way to celebrate the achievements is to share acquisitions with contemporary peers, less successful than thou - not enslaving them to laziness, but encouraging them to take their duty more seriously. Last and the most important aspect is not to allow one's success go to the head and fire the ego. For this, dedication of achievements to  ONE - GOD - hiding behind our temporary identities is the technique. These fundamentals are derived from over 5000 years old treatise on Self-mangement: Bhagwad Gita. Omn, Amen, Amin!
