Since Russel Simmons just released his book "Success Through Stillness" which talks directly about meditation. I figured this would be a good time to write about its benefits.
Meditation is a great business tool. It not only allows you
to enter a realm of calm in such a hectic world, but it also puts you in tune
with the universe while bringing happiness to your life, there is nothing sacrilegious about it. Mental focus can be a huge attribute to your success. Ask 11 time world champion basketball coach Phil Jackson, he’s been
incorporating this into his life and coaching style for years. Meditation can also bring intuitions/hunches to you that can change your life if you act on them. Some of
the most successful people credit mediation as the tool that helped bring their
dreams to fruition. ie. Russell Simmons, Oprah, Ellen Degeneres...
Ive been incorporating mediation daily since the start of
this year and it has helped me tremendously. The amount of stress that is taken
away from your life is crazy. If you live in a stress free environment, more
time can be dedicated to doing things properly and without distraction. There
are times when I need to get out of a funk, so i use mediation as a tool to
clear my mind and only bring positive things into my thoughts. I can go on and on about the benefits, but do your own research if my blog hasnt sold you. It doesn't hurt
to give mediation a shot, I
guarantee if you stick with it you will experience the feeling of freedom and happiness. I'm not saying meditation alone will bring you success, but it is a phenomenal aid!
