Bhagavad Gita 2.66

There is no wisdom for the unsteady, and no meditation for the unsteady; without meditation there is no peace; and without peace, how can there be happiness?.

"There is no wisdom for the unsteady, and no meditation for the unsteady; without meditation there is no peace; and without peace, how can there be happiness?"

Practical application

Treat the next task as the entire universe. Do only that, fully, then look up.
