How are we supposed to concentrate if no one really ever taught us how?
Who else would rattle that thought around my head but a Hindu monk turned entrepreneur with a single name - Dandapani.
He wears the robes and the garb. He has three lines painted on his forehead. And still he drops the knowledge that we all can use:
“If you want to be good at something you have to practice it. If you want to be really good at concentration, you need to practice it all day. People are good at distraction because that’s what they practice all day long. It’s not that they don’t have the ability to concentrate, they just practice distraction and become really, really good at it. So how do we concentrate? We concentrate by practicing one thing at a time and integrating this practice into our everyday lives.”
We know that the day has an end and so does life, but we keep on keepin' on like we'll handle it all tomorrow. And tomorrow never comes.
Right now is the time to do what matters.
