Excellence isn’t about working extra hard to do what you’re told. It’s about taking the initiative to do work you decide is worth doing.
Meditate at Work: Be mindful of your workplace. Keep interacting with colleagues and responding to emails in a patient and calm manner. Practice responding to a situation rather than reacting. When you do this, your colleagues and mail recipients will also be able to experience your state of mind. Contemplate on your thoughts, words and action while at work. Desk breathing is a common technique used by people with a sedentary lifestyle. Even without crossing your legs or closing your eyes, you can manage to switch off amidst your busy schedule. Just focus on the tip of your nose and inhale/ exhale slowly. Listen to the sound of your breathing and try to concentrate on the various parts of your body. This technique will help you unwind and will clear your mind of the mess.
