“You must learn to be still in the midst of activity and to be vibrantly alive in repose.”
~ Indira Gandhi
When you watch champion athletes at peak performance you can’t help but notice their single pointed focus on only what they’re doing in the present moment. In a state of heightened awareness, only accessible with a still mind, they are able to take in information from all around them, instantly know what their next move must be, and execute it flawlessly. It’s all effortless.
This heightened awareness is called presence, presence of mind.
Practice it always — while working, walking, washing dishes, relaxing, imagining, interacting — and enjoy the purity of life flowing through you.
