“Someone once inquired of a Far Eastern Zen master, who had a great serenity and peace about him no matter what pressures he faced: “How do you maintain that serenity and peace?” He replied, “I never leave my place of meditation.”
He meditated early in the morning and for the rest of the day, he carried the peace of those moments with him in his mind and heart.”
~ Stephen R. Covey from “The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People”
Do you meditate?
If not, you should seriously consider sitting quietly for 5-10-20+ minutes a day—connecting with the peace and stillness of your deepest nature and that of the universe.
More on why and how for another Big Idea.
For now?
Let’s remember that the only reason we meditate is to make our LIFE a meditation.
What good is it if we meditate x minutes a day x times per week and we’re an *sshole?
Um, not very much.
Meditate. Every moment.
