Over weekend I was surfing through some videos on YouTube and saw a small video from the movie "Devil Wears Prada". The scene shows Andrea is interviewed for a job and the employer mentions that he did a reference check in her previous organization. The interviewer mentioned that her ex-boss Miranda personally sent a fax which read that out of the assistants that she has hired so far, Andrea was her biggest disappointment and he would be an idiot if he didn't hire her. The interviewer carefully looks at Andrea and says "You must have done something right!"

I kept watching that video again and again. It
gave a very simple yet an impactful message. Out of everything we do in life,
sometimes we mess up big time. We are unable to figure the best response
to the situation. But if we are truly honest and sincere in
our efforts, it will pay us and all the efforts will turn 100% worth someday. One
of the qualities that I really admire in a person is ‘The right intent’ instead
of 'The right outcome'. If the intent is right, outcome will automatically be
positive, if not today then tomorrow.
Sometimes 99 things may go wrong and only 1 thing
that we do right is enough to sail through the journey.
Strive for that 'one right thing' and all shall be good at the end.
