Enjoy The Road

An idea from The Analects

You did careful work and nobody noticed. The Master says not to be upset by that. Worry about the opposite gap, the people you have failed to understand: “I will not be afflicted at men’s not knowing me; I will be afflicted that I do not know men.”

From The Analects by Confucius
