Enjoy Your Work
Bowerman's Training Principles
11. Enjoy your work.
This is perhaps the most important training principle.
At the end of the day, to get the most out of your training you must derive an inherent sense of joy, satisfaction, and fulfillment from it.
Results are not guaranteed — they come and they go.
As Krishna said, “We have a right to our labor, but not to the fruits of our labor.”
What did he mean by that?
He meant that the process is its own reward. The only real reward.
Enjoy success if you’re lucky enough to get it.
But enjoy your work more.
