"Don't aim at success - the more you aim at it and make it a target, the
more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be
pursued; it must ensue... as the unintended side-effect of one's personal
dedication to a course greater than oneself or as the by-product of one's
surrender to a person other than oneself. Happiness must happen, and the
same holds for success: you have to let it happen by not caring about it.
...success will follow you precisely because you had forgotten to think of
it." Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning
