Being able to achieve a deep focus and to have a strong concentration are valuable skills for Salesforce consultants.
These skills, like any other, can be cultivated. You may not be very good at them today, but you can teach yourself to become better
One fantastic way to start this process of growth is to meditate. I’ve been meditating daily for more than 6 months, and have found noticeable life improvements.
Accordingly to Healthline, here are 12 benefits of meditation:
- Reduces stress
- Controls anxiety
- Supports emotional health
- Enhances self-awareness
- Lengthens attention span
- May reduce age-related memory loss
- Can generate kindness
- May help with addiction
- Improves sleep
- Helps control pain
- Can decrease blood pressure
- Accessible anywhere
If this is something that interests you, guided meditation is probably the easiest way to start. It’s where someone knowledgeable tells you what to be aware of.
I’ve been using the Waking Up app from Sam Harris. It’s a science-based approach to what he calls “building a telescope for your mind”.
I don’t have any affiliation, but can share with you a free 30 day trial of the guided meditation app. No credit card needed to start.
The takeaway
Many successful CEOs and celebrities publicly share that they meditate. With so many benefits, it’s easy to understand why.
