In this episode Adam and Dr. Eric discuss:
- Eric’s book, Profit with Presence: The 12 Pillars of Mindful Leadership
- The 1st Pillar of Mindful Leadership: mindfulness and presence
- The 2nd Pillar of Mindful Leadership: finding your purpose in life
- The 3rd Pillar of Mindful Leadership: creating clarity, vision, intention, commitment, and habits
- Incorporating mindfulness in the workplace
Key Takeaways:
- The current state of the world has caused people to become distracted and incapable of paying attention. Unless people learn to slow down and be present, it will not only affect their work environment but also their homes.
- Be present and practice mindfulness. By being mindful and aware of your actions, and being present in the moment, you reduce stress and improve your mental and emotional health.
- Know your purpose to improve your motivation and presence in the world. Your purpose is what motivates you in the morning, not what drags you out of bed.
- The first and second pillars are about creating clarity - being mindful, being present, and finding our purpose give us clarity of mind and goals. Commit to those goals and eliminate habits that do not align with your vision and commitment.
- Take time to practice gratitude, meditate consistently, find some other mindful activities, and listen without judgment.
“Mindfulness itself automatically makes us a little more sensitive to what we put in our body, but it takes some focused attention and intention.” – Dr. Eric J. Holsapple
