focus on our actions, our effort, our hustle, rather than the results
Strive to continue forward, but always concentrate on the action at hand, making it most effective. Do not mar your action by concentration on the success or future results of the action.

Great leaders do not define success in terms of the external results of their efforts; they know that their COMMITMENT to the effort is what counts most.
