We all know what mindfulness is. Right?
Wrong?
Most of us don't. We think we understand.
But then that's why continuous learning is so important. If you don't about something then you go out and learn. And in today's time, you don't always have to go to a university to learn.
Mindfulness is about being mindful. Okay, we get that. But what more?
It is about staying calm, being empathetic, checking your emotions, and stuff like that.
Yes. But there is more.
Ah, I know what you are pointing to Anshuman!
It is meditation.
Yes. But there is more.
Okay, but why do we need it at work?
We spend over 1/3rd of our lives at work. And during the ages we are working up to half can be at work. Our friends and not-so-friends are at work. Our failure and success it work.
So why not mindfulness at work?

1 年Superb piece, Anshuman...like this phrase " Our friends and not-so-friends are at work" ...remember a name for the " not so friends piece - Frenemies" . All the best for your session.
