Books on being mindful
I have been reading some very good books on being mindful, such as “Search inside yourself”, which is how Google is applying mind techniques to the workplace. Or “Buddha’s Brain” which is about the neuroscience behind meditation. Utterly fascinating and highly recommended. Already wrote about “The code of the extraordinary mind” and would also highly recommend “Work Clean” which is the Masterchef version of being mindful.
Be obsessed
Picked up “Be obsessed or be average” by Grant Cardone. We are fans of Grant. Grant wrote “Sell or be sold. Not as “blood on the wall” as “Do-it” Marketing by David Newman, but fairly hard-nosed.
Blood on the wall mindfulness
“Be obsessed” takes being mindful in a different direction and it is a blood on the wall version. It is not about vision, passion, purpose, values, positioning and resourcing. It is not about balance in your life. It is about being obsessed with what you want to do. Defining your obsession statement.
Go for it
And then go for it. In a “no holds barred”, “no excuse”, “don’t give up” type of way. Ending the epidemic of average, being the best you can be, roaring towards your future. The only failure is quitting.
