Comment on A mentalist’s guide to being happy

Comments

This is succinctly mentioned in Vedic Philosophy - Do your actions as a offering, be detached from results of your action, live a life of purpose. The battlefield discourse of Bhagavad Gita by Stephen Mitchell is a good intro. Stoicists will find many good nuggets in the Yoga of Action discourse.

Agreed. One translation I have read is "You are entitled to your actions but not the results". I find that a great philosophy.
