Don't aim at succes---the more you aim at it and make it a target,
the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be
pursued, it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side-effect
of one's personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the
by-product of one's surrender to a person other than oneself.
Happiness must happen, and the same holds for success; you have to let
it happen by not caring about it. I want you to listen to what you conscience
commands you to do and go on to carry it out to the best of your knowledge.
Then, you will live to see that in the long run---in the long run, I say!---success
will follow you precisely because you had forgotten to think about it.
