Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment

Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment, full effort is full victory - Mahatma Gandhi Quotes. Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment: Success and failure is all about the results - this is what most of us are taught to believe. I can see the logic in this because success comes with results and accolades that help us recognise a victory. This quote by Mahatma Gandhi talks about the effort involved in achieving success. Some of our successes can sometimes be fluke events. Although they give us the results, the satisfaction derived from them is small and in some cases disappointing. This quote brings the focus back to the effort involved and the satisfaction derived from this effort.

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win - Mahatma Gandhi Quotes. First, they ignore you then they laugh at you: This is a typical response for anything people don't agree with. This is the world we live in. New ideas are not always welcome, they will be met with resistance, challenge and sometimes even a fight. This is especially true if your ideas are in conflict with some set of thoughts or you challenge people in power. But our job is not to listen to the entire world. We start from within. This is what the purity of our mind tells us - we get these thoughts for a reason and it is our job to act on it. This quote by Mahatma Gandhi shows us what to expect when you're taking a stance. It also motivates us to stay strong in our beliefs and find a way to express them without fear or prejudice.

Whatever you do may seem insignificant to you, but it is most important that you do it

Whatever you do may seem insignificant to you, but it is most important that you do it - Mahatma Gandhi

Whatever you do may seem insignificant: There’s no such thing as a small job. We must do this because how we do it sometimes matters more than just the what. If you look at it from an external perspective, we can argue that all jobs are menial. It is only when we compare what we do to someone else, that the question of worth comes into play. Each job or work has its significance, value and importance in its own right. The world cannot function without each of us playing our roles.
