Do your duty, do not expect the results
Keep doing epic shit.
There is a line in Bhagawad Gita that states that “Karmanyevadhikarasthe maa paleshu kadachana, Ma karma phalaheturbhuh matey sangah astu akarmani.” This verse in Sanskrit is commonly translated as, ‘Do your duty, do not expect the results’.
Since childhood, we have been taught the same, but in the age of social network platform, we have been addicted to instant result. Additions of getting the number of likes on whatever we share with the world and those likes act as a validation for us whether those people understand the real value or not.
If we do not receive any feedback, critics, suggestions on our works that doesn’t mean it has no value. It’s just another piece of waste. And we started overthinking, procrastination, underestimating ourselves, our capabilities of out-performing.
These things kill our energy of doing lined up works.
But, what are the ways in which someone can validate “how much value their work hold?, what are the opportunities they can attract based on those works?, how they can utilize their works to gain desired things?”.
One way is that publish your works on different platforms(depends upon type/domain, like for Writing I prefer, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, Medium, IndieHacker) and wait…
