To engage in thought or contemplation
TruthSpeaks Definition:
Taking a mental break from what the future to focus on the present
Explanation:
You have a big meeting you must prepare a presentation for or you are pitching your business idea to investors in a couple of days and you are lacking innovation. Does this sound like a situation you are in or something familiar? I believe we all have felt this type of pressure. Have you considered taking a mental break? Research has shown that the brain is more powerful than we assume and can store much more information than we give it credit to. So why not give your brain a break and concentrate on what is in front of you? Yes, I want you to focus on the present. What are you doing right at this moment, besides reading this blog? How can you zero out the noise around you and meditate on the here and now? For example, media mogul Oprah Winfrey and megastar Bono both have stated they meditate daily for clarity and before projects they must complete, regardless of the size. You may be amazed at the ideas you can consider when you are in the present moment.
