Equanimity is Essential
Manage episode 412332911 series 3553054
Reflecting on my NFL career, meditation was foreign to me. I rarely paused to focus on my breath, let alone comprehend the depth of equanimity. However, as I delved into an article, I realized that casual meditation and mindfulness are mere stepping stones to equanimity. This state of calm and balance requires a longer, more dedicated journey than sporadic mindfulness practices. Mindfulness is a short-term practice, while equanimity is a lifelong pursuit.
I express transparency during these short podcasts. I struggled in the mindfulness phase early in my career as a professional in college athletics. I think that equanimity is essential to everyone and that it can have a profound impact on organizations. Are you willing to be the catalyst for change? Are you willing to start meditation or mindfulness groups that can extend the undisturbed balance of the mind to your colleagues? If you are a leader who knows how important your people are to your organization, now is the time to insert tactics as such and strive for equanimity.
