I found a satisfying answer.
Since I’ve been using the 8-Arms Yoga field and also studying further, I think I figured out the answer.
Both Tapas (Discipline) and Ishvara Pranidhana (Surrender) are advocated by Patanjali.
Although they seem like the opposite paths, we can still practice/include both in our lives simultaneously.
The key is to have discipline, do our best at all times, but leave all results/outcomes to the divine.
