Nishkama karma is a great message -- very important for living life wholesomely. At the risk of diluting this message, let me rephrase it in a slightly worldly way:
(1) Your actions will bring results, have faith.
(2) Place your faith in the boundless power of God, not in the power of your puny self, or of your action.
(3) Don''t seek to enjoy the fruits of your actions and to get an ego boost by seeing your achievements. Detach yourself, but have faith that God never lets an action go waste.
(4) Don''t let your actions be motivated by your ego, and don''t let the fruits of these actions feed your ego. Keep your actions clean and pure, untainted by ego.
