Focus not on fruit but on root. Fruit will happen then.
In philosophy, an actionis that which is done by an agent. In common speech, the term is often used interchangeably with the term "behaviour". However, in the philosophy of action, behavioural sciences, and the social sciences, a distinction is made: behavior is automatic and reflexive activity, while action is an intentional, purposive, conscious and subjectively meaningful activity.
Thus, things like running or throwing a ball is an instance of action; it involves intention, a goal, and a bodily movement guided by the agent. On the other hand, catching a cold is not considered an action.
Pursue excellence, success will follow you .

Why there is misery in people's life? Why they are unhappy about their work? Because they are not focussed on doing action but just on fruit. What is the fruit? Very simple! The payment at the end of the month.
What's wrong with the payment? You will wonder. Nothing wrong. We all need money for survival. But when we do things because of the money, it's wrong. Our very nature is of doing karna or action but when we do action due to fruit we get into the trap!
There is a wonderful story concerning this. In jungle, there is a trap for monkeys. Inside the trap they keep channa. When monkey get tempted to eat them, their hand get caught. If he lives the fruit, then he is free. If not, he is caught.
Who is enslaving him? He himself!

You can only become truly accomplished at something you love. Don’t make money your goal. Instead pursue the things you love doing and then do them so well that people can’t take their eyes off of you.
“When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bounds. Your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction and you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive, and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be.”
“There comes a time when you ought to start doing what you want. Take a job that you love. You will jump out of bed in the morning. I think you are out of your mind if you keep taking jobs that you don’t like because you think it will look good on your resume. Isn’t that a little like saving up sex for your old age?”
“Yes, I’ve made a great deal of dough from my fiction, but I never set a single word down on paper with the thought of being paid for it…I have written because it fulfilled me. Maybe it paid off the mortgage on the house and got the kids through college, but those things were on the side—I did it for the buzz. I did it for the pure joy of the thing. And if you can do it for the joy, you can do it forever.”
