Musings

If you can soundly argue youโ€™ve done everything you can, then the next conclusion would be to refrain from worry, because it can only be detrimental from that point on.

  2. I share a similar attitude. If I know that I’ve done all I can for a given task/situation, and the outcome/result is still pending (and dependent on other factors out of my reach), all I can do is HOPE for a good outcome.
