> What is the point of a job if not the results?

The idea is to not fret over results and give your best with dedication. E.g. An athlete shouldn't be worrying about their results while playing and should focus on the play.

> How can you be responsible for your actions but not the consequences of your actions

I only mentioned control of consequences not responsibility. It doesn't mean you are absolved of responsibility from consequences of your actions.

Take driving. You can only control your actions but you cannot control what happens on the road. You are still responsible for your actions.

Should the fear of the unknown on the road stop you from driving? Absolutely not.
