The highest form of action is a selfless and desireless action, with no focus on the outcome and complete detachment from a feeling of ownership toward the fruits of action. This is advocated in many spiritual paths as a means of realization of the true nature of the self and attainment of the supreme. In the Bhagavad Gita, this form of action is given the name Niṣkāmakarma.  

We can adopt this attitude towards every action that we perform, by steadfastly bringing our complete attention to the task on hand in the here and now, instead of letting our thoughts dwell on the final outcome in the future over which we have no control.

Dwelling on the destination leads to miseries in the form of fear, anxiety, insecurity, craving, competitiveness and other forms of psychological conditions producing undesirable effects.

A real warrior neither lives in the past, nor thinks about the future. For a real warrior, what matters is the journey undertaken with complete attention.

We are all warriors, for each of us have battles to be fought within in the journey of this life.
