The Rich Roll Podcast

NOTE

Seek Not the Reward

Pursue actions for their inherent value rather than for recognition or rewards. The concept of the 'third thing' illustrates that after performing a good deed or achieving a goal, the anticipation of acknowledgment, validation, or compensation can distract from the fulfillment of the action itself. Whether it's working out, completing a project, or any endeavor, the results may manifest later without needing immediate feedback or reward. Focus on the process and the intrinsic satisfaction derived from the effort rather than external validation.
