Ask Yourself

Tom Brady explains his success as "having the answers to the test." 

What questions belong on our daily self-examination test?

How do I improve today? 

What does my team need now? 

And from Michael Useem in The Leadership Moment, the after-action review:
   What went well?
   What went poorly?
   How can I improve what went poorly?
   What is the enduring lesson? 

Find solutions and become a leader.

Why Mindfulness?

Famous psychologist William James provided us with answers to the importance of attention over a hundred years ago. 



Meta-attention is attention to attention to itself. I like to say, "the first price to pay for peak performance is TO PAY ATTENTION." 


Attention is a skill, the skill that informs success.

Why mindfulness changes your life. 



We can become Velcro for good thoughts and Teflon for negative thoughts.
