Bhagavad Geeta 6.37
Sanskrit
अर्जुन उवाच अयतिः श्रद्धयोपेतो योगाच्चलितमानसः। अप्राप्य योगसंसिद्धिं कां गतिं कृष्ण गच्छति।।6.37।।
arjuna uvācha ayatiḥ śhraddhayopeto yogāch chalita-mānasaḥ aprāpya yoga-sansiddhiṁ kāṅ gatiṁ kṛiṣhṇa gachchhati
Meaning
Inconsistent effort undermines even sincere intentions. Success requires sustained discipline and focus, not just good intentions. Recommit daily to your goals.
Translation
Arjuna said, "O Krsna, what goal does one attain who, despite having faith, fails to achieve perfection in Yoga due to lack of diligence, and whose mind becomes deflected from Yoga?"
