When I was just launching my coaching practice, I looked at the self-help/business section at Barnes & Noble and noticed book after book on productivity, effectiveness training, time management, planning and goal setting. In my mind, that meant that people were spending money to learn how to master those types of challenges, and so I patterned my marketing around those issues.
Now, after having around the block a couple of times, I realize that for most part those are symptoms and not the real problem. Even though we pour tons of money and time into books, tapes, and seminars on general productivity, I’ve come to believe that the deeper issue is that many of us pour all that time and money into careers that don’t really matter to us. The results, not surprisingly, are disappointing, because we’re trying infuse our work with energy and effectiveness, and those things don’t come from outside. They can’t be infused if there’s no passion, no purpose. As I talk with people, it becomes very clear to me that one cannot be truly effective and successful without being passionate about what you’re doing. So how do you discover your passion? Where do you find your deepest, fundamental, core life purpose? ![]() In my work with busy professionals and entrepreneurs, I’ve found that it’s getting easier to convince these highly driven, type A, “go getters” that a regular practice of meditation is something that will make a significant and nearly immediate positive difference in their lives. The old stereotypes associated with meditation, yoga, alternative medicine and nutrition are finally falling by the wayside as more and more “regular folks” see the benefits for themselves. If you’re not yet taking time to explore meditation, let me assure that no matter how busy you are, meditation is a great way to clear your mind of the worries and stresses of the day. In this article, I want to introduce you to a method of relaxation, and even if you think it's difficult on a first read, with a little practice, you'll find that it's not really hard at all. |
